I review various theory issues in diffraction that have been presented and discussed in the working group on diffractive interactions, and a few points concerning the comparison of theory with data.
In this talk, the recent data on diffractive electron-proton interactions at HERA are reviewed. The question of diffraction as a soft or hard process is addressed and discussed in the context of inclusive diffraction, vector meson…
The production of three Higgs bosons could be a stretch goal for the LHC and a strategic case for future colliders. In this work, we analyse the phenomenological prospects of (neutral) triple Higgs compared to di-Higgs boson production, for…
We summarize the main results of the spin physics Working Group Session of DIS 2007, the 15th International Workshop on ``Deep-Inelastic Scattering and Related Subjects''.
We have calculated diffractive dijet production in deep-inelastic scattering (DIS) at low-Q^2 and next-to-leading order (NLO) of perturbative QCD, including contributions from direct and resolved photons. We study how the cross section…
Report of the Higgs working group for the Workshop "Physics at TeV Colliders", Les Houches, France 8-18 June 1999. It contains 6 separate sections: 1. Measuring Higgs boson couplings at the LHC. 2. Higgs boson production at hadron colliders…
We show that the recently reported excess in resonant diboson production can be explained in the context of non-custodial composite Higgs models. Dibosons are generated via the s-channel exchange of massive vector bosons present in these…
The theoretical status of Higgs boson and supersymmetric particle production at hadron colliders is reviewed with particular emphasis on recent results and open problems.
Non-trivial spin effects do not die out with energy growth. Here, we discuss one example of such effects -- production of spin-3 mesons in diffractive DIS. Using both explicit k_t-factorization calculations and their vector-dominance-model…
This talk covers a selection of topics that were discussed at this meeting in the non-heavy-ion sessions: (a) The high $Q^{2}$ events at HERA and their theoretical interpretation. (b) The issues of how well we know the predictions of QCD,…
We report measurements of hard diffractive processes performed by the CDF collaboration in proton-antiproton collisions at the Fermilab Tevatron collider at $\sqrt{s}$=1960 GeV. The characteristics of the diffractive structure function from…
We calculate the cross section for q(\bar q)g-production in diffractive DIS with finite fermion masses and zero momentum transfer. The calculation is done in the leading log(1/x_p) approximation and is valid for the region of high…
Pair production of Higgs bosons at hadron colliders is an enticing channel to search for new physics. New colored particles that couple strongly to the Higgs, such as those most often called upon to address the hierarchy problem, provide…
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 evaluate the non-perturbative contribution to the double-diffractive production of the Higgs boson, which arises due to the QCD scale anomaly if the mass of the Higgs M_H is smaller than the mass of the top quark M_T, M_H < M_T. The…
This Report summarises the results of the second year's activities of the LHC Higgs Cross Section Working Group. The main goal of the working group was to present the state of the art of Higgs Physics at the LHC, integrating all new results…
In this paper we develop the DGLAP evolution for the system of produced gluons in the process of diffractive production in DIS, directly from the evolution equation in Color Glass Condensate approach. We are able to describe the available…
We consider diffractive processes which can be measured at the LHC. Analysis of diffractive events will give unique information about the high energy asymptotics of hadron scattering. In semihard diffraction one may study the partonic…
Hard diffractive production of di-jets in the Tevatron and HERA are explored. It is argued that a consistent pQCD description of these data can be attained after s-channel unitarity re-scattering screening corrections are incorporated in…
We calculate the cross section for $c\bar{c}g$-production in diffractive DIS with finite quark masses at zero momentum transfer $t$. The calculation is done in the leading log(1/$x_{P}$) approximation and is valid in the region of high…
