Hard diffractive electroproduction of longitudinally polarized vector mesons is calculated within the leading $\alpha_s\ln{Q^2\over\Lambda_{QCD}^2}$ approximation of QCD using the leading order parton densities within the nucleon. Novel QCD…

We develop the color dipole phenomenology of diffractive photo- and electroproduction $\gamma^{*}\,N\rightarrow V(V')\,N$ of light vector mesons ($V(1S) = \phi^0, \omega^0, \rho^0$) and their radial excitations ($V'(2S) = \phi', \omega',…

Following recent predictions that the geometric scaling properties of deep inelastic scattering data in inclusive gamma*-p collisions are expected also in exclusive diffractive processes, we investigate the diffractive production of vector…
Elastic production of vector mesons $\gamma^{*} N\to V N$ is the pomeron-exchange dominated diffractive reaction with much potential of probing the BFKL pomeron. The BFKL pomeron can conveniently be described in terms of the dipole cross…

We discuss diffractive photon-production of vector mesons in holographic QCD. At large $\sqrt{s}$, the QCD scattering amplitudes are reduced to the scattering of pair of dipoles exchanging a closed string or a pomeron. We use the…
New results on elastic (exclusive) production of vector mesons are presented, mainly on J/\psi and phi mesons with emphasis on an interpretation of the data within pQCD.
Recent results on Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering (DVCS) and exclusive vector meson (VM) production obtained with the H1 detector at HERA are reviewed. Emphasis is put on the transition from soft to hard diffraction and on spin dynamics.
The QCD analysis of deep inelastic diffractive scattering at HERA is performed assuming the dominance of the "soft" pomeron exchange and simple, physically motivated parametrization of parton distributions in the pomeron. Both the LO and…
Recent measurements of diffractive vector-meson production with the general-purpose detectors H1 and ZEUS in electron-proton interactions with 300 GeV center-of-mass energy at the HERA accelerator complex have stimulated great interest in…
We develop the color dipole gBFKL phenomenology of a diffraction cone for photo- and electroproduction $\gamma^{*}N \to VN$ of heavy vector mesons (charmonium & bottonium) at HERA and in fixed target experiments. We predict a substantial…
We demonstrate another success of the AdS/QCD correspondence by showing that an AdS/QCD holographic light-front wavefunction for the $\rho$ meson generates predictions for the cross-sections of diffractive $\rho$ production that are in…
We calculate the rate for the deep-inelastic electroproduction of dijets at HERA. We study the weakening of the azimuthal (back-to-back) correlation between the jets, as $x$ decreases, to see whether it can be used to identify BFKL dynamics…

We discuss results on the diffractive production of the vector mesons rho, phi and omega reported by the H1 and ZEUS collaborations at HERA. Unique to such studies is the experimental accessibility to the polarization of the vector mesons…
