This thesis comprises two investigations, both connected with the attempt to understand Regge theory in the framework of QCD. The first is about how the odderon, a Reggeon carrying no charge which is odd under charge conjugation, couples to…
Soft pomeron fits reproduce all zero-Q2 data for light quarks, but run into problems at HERA for heavy mesons and for high Q2, and at the Tevatron for W diffractive production. I review the basic properties of the soft pomeron, and outline…
These lectures form a personal, and not necessarily comprehensive, survey of physics at the Fermilab Tevatron proton-antiproton collider. They cover detectors, analysis issues, and physics prospects for the current Tevatron run. (Version 2…
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,…
It is demonstrated that the "soft pomeron" (together with a secondary reggeon) describing cross-sections of hadron-hadron collisions is fairly able to describe the energy dependence of cross-sections of exclusive (virtual) photoproduction…
We study two and three jet events with a large rapidity gap at HERA. Unlike in the Ingelman-Schlein approach we do not adscribe a structure to the Pomeron. Instead, the coupling of the Pomeron to quarks or gluons is taken pointlike, which…
The 1994 data published by the H1 collaboration are compared with models based on Regge phenomenology. The $x_{\PO}$ dependence of the data can be described in a model based on the exchange of a dominant diffractive (pomeron) trajectory…
The Regge-Gribov model describing interacting pomerons and odderons is proposed with triple reggeon vertices taking into account the negative signature of the odderon. Its simplified version with zero transverse dimensions is first…
At high energy, exclusive meson photo- and electro-production give access to the structure of hadronic matter. At low momentum transfers, the exchange of a few Regge trajectories leads to a comprehensive account of the cross-sections. Among…
A Regge model of the Pomeron with intercept equal to one, leading to rising cross-sections is considered. Analysis of the experimental data on hadron and photon induced interactions is performed within the model. It is shown that the…
This talk is an attempt to clarify for experimentalists what we (theorists) mean when we are saying "Pomeron". I hope, that in this talk they will find answers to such questions as what is Pomeron, what we have learned about Pomeron, both…
Given the current landscape in experimental high-energy physics, these lectures are focused on applications of event generators for hadron colliders like the Tevatron and LHC. Section 2 contains a first overview of the physics picture and…
The high energy (Regge) limit provides a playground for understanding all loop structures of scattering amplitudes, and plays an important role in the description of many phenomenologically relevant cross-sections. While well understood in…
We consider the phenomenon of regge cut splitting, corresponding to the BFKL pomeron into an infinite sequence of regge-poles, which happens when one takes into account the running of QCD coupling with scale. The first members of this…
In this contribution, a comprehensive review of the main aspects of high pt jet physics in Run II at the Tevatron is presented. Recent measurements on inclusive jet and dijet production are discussed using different jet algorithms and…
The amplitude for 4 interacting reggeized gluons is studied in the high-colour limit. The leading order amplitude is explicitly shown to reduce to a pair of reggeons, i.e to a single BFKL pomeron. The next-to-leading order diffractive…
We present a preliminary report on the determination of the intercepts and couplings of the soft pomeron and of the rho/omega and f/a trajectories from the largest data set available for all total cross sections and real parts of the…
A review is given of the measurements of the hard diffractive interactions in recent years from two high-energy colliders, the HERA $ep$ collider and the Tevatron $p\bar{p}$ collider. The structure of the diffractive exchange in terms of…
The role of spin degrees of freedom in high-energy hadron-hadron and lepton-hadron scattering is reviewed with emphasis on the dominant role of soft, diffractive, non-perturbative effects. Explicit models based on analyticity and Regge-pole…
Some unusual features observed in hadronic collisions at high energies can be understood assuming that gluons in hadrons are located within small spots occupying only about 10% of the hadron's area. Such a conjecture about the presence of…
