Recent data on single diffraction dissociation, measured by the CDF at the Tevatron show a moderate increase with energy of the cross section, thus confirming the predictions based on the dipole pomeron model.
Hard diffraction in events with dijets and rapidity gaps has been studied by D\O and CDF for three processes: hard color singlet exchange, hard single diffraction, and hard double pomeron exchange, using Tevatron $\bar pp$ data at…
