Measurements of Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering (DVCS) are presented using data collected by the H1 and ZEUS experiments at HERA. The transition from a virtual photon to an on-shell particle is expected to necessitate the use of skewed…
We discuss the $p p \to p p \gamma$ reaction at the LHC. We consider diffractive classical bremsstrahlung mechanisms including effects of non point-like nature of protons. In addition, we take into account (vector meson)-pomeron,…
We show that the data for diffractive dijet production at the Tevatron p pbar collider are consistent with diffractive deep inelastic e p data collected at HERA. The breakdown of factorization between the two data sets is naturally…

`Soft' high-energy interactions are clearly important in pp collisions. Indeed, these events are dominant by many orders of magnitude, and about 40% are of diffractive origin; that is, due to elastic scattering or proton dissociation.…
Hard exclusive reactions are the tool to learn about generalized parton distributions, which provide a more complete parametrization of the nucleon than the ordinary parton distribution functions. Recent measurements by the HERMES…

Highlights are presented mainly from two recent measurements of the diffractive Deep Inelastic Scattering cross section at HERA. In the first, the process $ep\to eXp$ is studied by tagging the leading final state proton. In the second,…
Exclusive pseudoscalar meson production in ep scattering at high energies is a direct probe for a possible "odderon" exchange in soft hadronic processes. Using a simple phenomenological ansatz for the odderon, we demonstrate how it can be…
