Low missing mass, single- and double diffraction dissociation is calculated for the LHC energies from a dual-Regge model, dominated by a Pomeron Regge pole exchange. The model reproduces the rich resonance structure in the low missing mass…
The expected resonance structure for the low-mass single diffractive states from a Regge-dual model elaborated paper by the present authors in a previous is predicted. Estimates for the observable low-mass single diffraction dissociation…

A comprehensive review of the single diffraction dissociation duality-based model at low missing masses have been presented. The distinguishing feature of the model is the nonlinear Regge proton trajectory used to account for the resonances…

Results from the large hadron collider (LHC) show that no available Monte Carlo simulation incorporates our pre-LHC knowledge of soft and hard diffraction in a way that could be reliably extrapolated to LHC energies. As a simulation is…
Diffractive scattering in the presence of a large momentum transfer is an ideal place to study the short distance rapidity gap producing mechanism. Previous studies (experimental and theoretical) in this area have focussed on gaps between…

We show that the diffractive pp (and p\bar{p}) data (on \sigma_tot, d\sigma_el/dt, proton dissociation into low-mass systems, \sigma^D(low M), and high-mass dissociation, d\sigma/d(\Delta\eta)) in a wide energy range from CERN-ISR to LHC…
Proton-proton collisions at the LHC can be classified as elastic, non-diffractive, and diffractive. In this paper we discuss various measurements of these above processes at various LHC experiments. We report about the total proton-proton…
With the knowledge of diffractive parton densities extracted from HERA data, we discuss the observation of exclusive events using the dijet mass fraction as measured by the CDF collaboration at the Tevatron. In particular the impact of the…
We describe new QCD fits to diffractive cross sections measured at HERA and we use the parton densities derived from these fits to predict the shape of the dijet mass fraction in double Pomeron exchange at the Tevatron. We discuss the…
The cross section for low mass dissociation at LHC energies is estimated in a partly data driven approach. The result is compared to the Monte Carlo estimate from the QGSJET-II-03 model used by the TOTEM experiment in the determination of…
