Inclusive and diffractive structure functions for electron-proton scattering are calculated in a semiclassical approach at large momentum transfer $Q^2$ and small values of the scaling variable $x$. The basic process is the production of a…
Multi Pomeron interactions are the main source of high mass diffraction. Their role in high energy dynamics greatly influences the predictions for high energy cross sections and survival probabilities of hard diffraction channels, notably,…

The diffractive dissociation of a hadron at high energies, by either Coulomb or Pomeron exchange, has a natural description in QCD as the materialization of the projectile's light-cone wavefunctions; in particular, the diffractive…
We ask the question whether the quark and gluon distributions in the Pomeron obtained from QCD fits to hard diffraction processes at HERA can be dynamically generated from a state made of ``valence-like'' gluons and sea quarks as input. By…
We present an analytic formula to extract the longitudinal structure function in the next- to -leading order of the perturbation theory at low $x$, from the Regge- like behavior of the gluon distribution and the structure function at this…
