It is pointed out in this talk that ``the colorless objects'' in diffractive scattering in the small-$x_B$ region can be probed by measuring the scaled factorial moments of final-state-hadrons and the dependence of their scaling behavior…
The colorless objects(s) in diffractive lepton-nucleon scattering in the small-$x_B$ region can be probed by examing the final state particles in such processes: (A) Perform multiplicity and/or energy factorial moment analyses, and check…
Both three- and one-dimensional studies of local multiplicity fluctuations in hadronic Z decay are performed using data of the L3 experiment at LEP. The normalized factorial moments in three dimensions exhibit power-law scaling, indicating…
We pursue the hypothesis that the events with a large rapidity gap, observed at HERA, reflect the scattering of electrons off lumps of wee partons inside the proton. A simple scaling behaviour is predicted for the diffractive structure…
We study quantum fluctuations of the nucleon's parton densities by combining QCD factorization for hard processes with the notion of cross section fluctuations in soft diffraction. The fluctuations of the small-x gluon density are related…
We describe diffractive deeply inelastic scattering in terms of diffractive parton distributions. We investigate these distributions in a hamiltonian formulation that emphasizes the spacetime picture of diffraction scattering. For hadronic…
Pomeron non factorization for the diffractive scattering is considered and an analysis of experimental data is performed with different cuts in the momentum fraction $\xi$. The results of the analysis are compared with the breaking…
It is shown that the hadronic dissociation of space-like $(Q^2>0)$ photons can be directly probed by performing measurements in the fragmentation region of transversely polarized and unpolarized proton beams at the electron-proton collider…
It is suggested that virtual gluon-clusters exist in nucleon, and that such colorless and colored objects manifest themselves in the small $x_B$ region of inelastic lepton-nucleon scattering processes. The relationship between the…
The HERA diffractive structure function data are interpreted in terms of `diffractive parton distributions' which satisfy DGLAP evolution. These distributions are modeled assuming that the scattering takes place off a colour singlet…
It is suggested that the study of multiplicity difference correlators between two well-separated bins in high-energy heavy-ion collisions can be used as a means to detect evidence of a quark-hadron phase transition. Analytical expressions…
We present a novel Monte-Carlo implementation of dynamic colour screening via multiple exchanges of semi-soft gluons as a basic QCD mechanism to understand diffractive electron-proton scattering at the HERA collider. Based on the kinematics…
A search for power-law fluctuations within the framework of the intermittency method is ongoing to locate the critical point of the strongly interacting matter. In particular, experimental data on proton and pion production in heavy-ion…
The diffractive process ep \rightarrow eXY, where Y denotes a proton or its low mass excitation with MY < 1.6 GeV, is studied with the H1 experiment at HERA. The analysis is restricted to the phase space region of the photon virtuality 3…
HERA measurements of diffractive ep scattering - the quasi-elastic scattering of the photon in the proton colour field - are summarised. Emphasis is placed on the most recent data.
We review a broad range of phenomena in diffraction in the context of hadron-hadron, hadron-nucleus collisions and deep inelastic lepton-proton/nucleus scattering focusing on the interplay between the perturbative QCD and non-perturbative…
It has been demonstrated that factorial moments analysis in dependence from the size of phase-space cells (when the latter is decreased but is still considerably large), exhibits sensitivity to particle bunching within a system situated in…
Recent measurement of inclusive processes and hadronic final states in diffractive deep-inelastic scattering at HERA are used to investigate the QCD factorisation properties and study partonic structure of colour singlet exchange. Resolved…
The ZEUS detector at HERA has been used to measure the photoproduction of isolated photons in diffractive events. Cross sections are evaluated in the photon transverse-energy and pseudorapidity ranges 5 < E_T^gamma < 15 Gev and -0.7 <…
We discuss the close relation between shadowing in deep-inelastic lepton-nucleus scattering and diffractive photo- and leptoproduction of hadrons from free nucleons. We show that the magnitude of nuclear shadowing at small Bjorken-x, as…
