We present microscopic QCD calculation of the cross section of diffractive DIS and of the partonic structure of the pomeron from the dipole approach to the generalized BFKL pomeron. We show that the pomeron can not be treated as a particle…
We systematically study exclusive diffractive (photo) production of vector mesons ($J/\psi$, $\psi(2s)$, $\phi$ and $\rho$) off protons in high-energy collisions and investigate whether the production is a sensitive probe of gluon…
We argue that hadron production in coherent diffraction of proton on a heavy nucleus provides a very sensitive probe of the low-x QCD dynamics. This process probes the BFKL dynamics in proton and the non-linear gluon evolution in nucleus.…
