We present a novel analysis of diffractive DIS data, in which the input parton distributions of the Pomeron are parameterised using perturbative QCD expressions. In addition to the usual two-gluon model for the perturbative Pomeron, we…
This brief review of hard diffraction is focussed on the theory of the diffractive structure function F_2^D. Some aspects of diffractive vector meson production and of diffractive processes in hadron-hadron collisions are also discussed.
Transverse single spin asymmetry in polarized diffractive $Q \bar Q$ production is calculated. It is shown that this asymmetry depends strongly on the spin structure of the pomeron coupling, which permits one to study the pomeron couplings…
The sensitivity of the spin dependence of high energy pp scattering, particularly the asymmetry A_{NN}, to the odderon is demonstrated. Several possible ways of determining the spin dependence of the odderon coupling from small-t data are…
We consider the procedure of determination of induced quark condensates in the QCD sum rule approach. It is noted that the previous estimations of this value were very rough. It is shown, that the detailed analyses of this parameter of QCD…
Spin asymmetries in collisions of spin-polarized hadrons probe polarized parton distributions, which encode the spin structure of the colliding hadrons. To perform precision physics studies with spin asymmetries, higher order QCD…
Approximate relations among transverse momentum dependent quark distribution functions are established in the framework of the QCD parton model. The validity of such results survives QCD evolution effects, owing to the Politzer theorem on…
Starting from the leading Odderon solution of the three gluon system in perturbative QCD we introduce, as a first step towards the transition to the nonperturbative region, an infrared cutoff and use the running QCD coupling constant. In…
In this paper we continue to pursue a goal of finding an effective theory for high energy interaction in QCD based on the colour dipole approach, for which the BFKL Pomeron Calculus gives a low energy limit. The key problem, that we try to…
Absorption of a photon by an electron moving parallel to a rough surface is studied.In the weak scattering regime we have evaluated the absorption probability of absorption of a single photon. It is shown the absorption probability with…
High-mass diffractive production of protons on the deuteron target is studied in the perturbative QCD in the BFKL approach. Leading order rearrangement contribution and the standard triple pomeron (the impulse approximation) are studied. In…
We propose the characterization of fragmentation functions by the energy fraction x, a hadron takes away from the energy of the jet measured in the frame co-moving with the jet. Besides, we propose the usage of the jet mass as the…
We illustrate that solution of the Schwinger-Dyson equation for the gluon propagator in QCD does not support an infrared softened behaviour, but only an infrared enhancement. This has consequences for the modelling of the Pomeron in terms…
In standard Regge theory with a pomeron intercept a(0)=1+\epsilon, the contribution of the tripe-pomeron amplitude to the t=0 differential cross section for single diffraction dissociation has the form d\sigma/dM^2(t=0) \sim…
We discuss the BFKL equation with a running gauge coupling and identify in its solutions the contributions originating from different transverse momentum scales. We show that for a running coupling constant the distribution of the gluons…

Using a numerical library for arbitrary precision arithmetic I study the irregular dependence of the diffusion coefficient on the slope of a piecewise linear map defining a dynamical system. I find that the graph of the diffusion…
We discuss the QCD evolution equations governing the high energy behavior of scattering amplitudes at the leading logarithmic level. This hierarchy of equations accommodates normal BFKL dynamics, Pomeron mergings and Pomeron splittings.…

The conformal invariance properties of the QCD Pomeron in the transverse plane allow us to give an explicit analytical expression for the solution of the BFKL equations both in the transverse coordinate and momentum spaces. This result is…
