Diffractive photoproduction of $\eta_c$ is an important process to study the effect of Odderon, whose existence is still not confirmed in experiment. A detailed interpretation of Odderon in QCD, i.e., in terms of gluons is also…
We present a measurement of the top pair production cross section in $p\bar{p}$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}$=1.96 TeV. We collect a data sample with an integrated luminosity of 194$\pm$11 pb$^{-1}$ with the CDF II detector at the Fermilab…
The dilepton transverse momentum spectra and invariant mass spectra for low $p_T <0.15$~GeV/c in Au+Au collisions of different centralities at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 200 GeV are studied within the parton-hadron-string dynamics (PHSD) transport…

Measurements of diffractive phenomena observed at HERA and the Tevatron are reviewed. A short introduction to the theoretical background is presented where colour singlet exchange reactions are discussed and the diffractive contribution and…
We investigate the form-factor dependence of Reggeized tensor Pomeron and Odderon exchanges in high-energy elastic $pp$ and $p\bar p$ scattering. The spin structure is implemented through explicit covariant spin-2 and spin-3 projectors,…
We study the kinematics and cross section of the scattering process $e p \rightarrow e \Sigma^+$. The cross section is expressed in terms of complex form factors characterizing the hadron vertices. We estimate the cross section for small…
We consider the contribution of the Odderon to diffractive $pp$ and $p\bar p$ elastic scattering at large center of mass energy. We identify the Odderon and Pomeron with the Reggeized $1^{\pm-}$ and $2^{++}$ glueballs in the bulk,…

At hadron colliders, top quarks are dominantly produced in pairs ($t\bar{t}$), a production mechanism that was discovered more than twenty years ago at the Tevatron in Fermilab. Although the \ttbar process has already entered the domain of…

We discuss how the evasive Odderon signal can be enhanced by final state interactions. We suggest the charge asymmetry of pion spectra in diffractive pi+pi- photoproduction as a promising signature of the Odderon exchange.
