The Very Forward Proton Spectrometer (VFPS) of the H1 experiment at HERA is collecting data since 2005. The fiber detectors in the Roman pots located at 218 and 222m downstream from the H1 interaction point, tag and measure diffractively…
We present analysis of J/$\psi$ production over the range $-1.0 < \eta < 4.2$ in p+p and d+Au collisions using di-electron data taken during the 2008 run with the STAR experiment at Brookhaven National Laboratory. STAR's unique forward…
Forward-backward multiplicity correlations have been measured with the STAR detector for Au+Au, Cu+Cu and {\it p+p} collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 200 GeV. A strong, long-range correlation is observed for central heavy ion collisions that…

New physics results with identified particles at STAR are presented. Measurements at low $p_T$ address bulk properties of the collision, while those at high $p_T$ address jet energy loss in the bulk matter produced. Between these extremes,…
Prompt photon production in ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions provides a calibrated probe for the study of the properties of high energy density QCD matter. Especially interesting are the measurements of $\gamma$-tagged jets where the…
Recent data from RHIC suggest novel nuclear effects in the production of high $p_T$ hadrons. We present results from the STAR detector on high $p_T$ angular correlations in Au+Au and p+p collisions at $\sqrt{s}=200$ GeV/c. These…
The proton diffractive structure function $F_2^{D(3)}$ measured in the H1 and ZEUS experiments at HERA is analyzed in terms of both Regge phenomenology and perturbative QCD evolution. A new method determines the values of the Regge…
Measurements of azimuthal differences between forward di-pions are sensitive to the low-${\it x}$ gluon content of the proton and provide the best opportunity to probe for gluon saturation in nuclei. Previously reported analyses have shown…
In the high-energy $p+p$ collisions, the transverse single spin asymmetry for very forward neutron production has been interpreted by an interference between $\pi$ (spin flip) and $a_1$ (spin non-flip) exchange with a non-zero phase shift.…
Measurements by the STAR collaboration of neutral pion production at large Feynman $x$ ($x_F$) in the first polarized proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}=200$ GeV were reported previously. During the following two runs additional statistics were…

An alternative process is presented for diffractive Higgs boson production in peripheral $pp$ collisions, where the particles interact through the Double Pomeron Exchange. The event rate is computed as a central-rapidity distribution for…
We study the behaviour of elastic and diffractive proton dissociation cross sections at high energy. First, we describe what would be expected to be observed at the LHC based on conventional Regge theory. We emphasize the tension between…
The exploration of the fundamental structure of strongly interacting matter has always thrived on the complementarity of lepton scattering and purely hadronic probes. As the community eagerly anticipates a future electron ion collider (EIC)…
