The study of those rapidity gap processes where a large momentum is transferred across the rapidity gap provides an ideal opportunity to understand the gap producing mechanism wholly within the framework of QCD perturbation theory. The…
The double dissociation photoproduction cross section for the process gamma p -> XY, in which the systems X and Y are separated by a large rapidity gap, is measured at large 4-momentum transfer squared |t| > 20 GeV^2 by the H1 Collaboration…
In this review talk I consider the physics of rapidity gaps between two jets at hadron colliders, as a preliminary investigation toward understanding the production of a Higgs boson via weak boson fusion at the LHC.
In this talk we review the models describing the hard diffractive production of jets or more generally high-mass states in presence of rapidity gaps in hadron-hadron and lepton-hadron collisions. By rapidity gaps we mean regions on the lego…
This talk will review selected topics in rapidity gap physics. In particular I will discuss diffractive jet production and the possibility of searching for the higgs boson using diffraction at the LHC; the dipole picture of diffraction and…
The Large Hadron Collider witnesses the highest ever production cross-section of double parton scattering processes. The production of a Z-boson along with two jets from double parton scattering provides a unique opportunity to explore the…
Diffractive events are studied by means of identification of one or more rapidity gaps and/or a leading antiproton. Measurements of soft and hard diffractive processes have been performed at the Tevatron $p\bar p$ collider and presented. We…
Diffractive events at hadron colliders are typically characterised by a region of the detector without particles, known as a rapidity gap. In order to observe diffractive events in this way, we consider the pseudorapidity acceptance in the…
A dual-Regge model with a nonlinear proton Regge trajectory in the missing mass channel, describing the experimental data on low-mass single diffraction dissociation, is constructed. Predictions for the LHC energies are given.
The large rapidity interval available at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) offers an arena in which the QCD aspects of diffraction may be explored in an environment free of gap survival complications using events with multiple rapidity gaps.
We quantify the rate of double diffractive Higgs/dijet production at $pp$ (or $p\bar{p}$) colliders. The suppression due to QCD bremsstrahlung is calculated perturbatively up to single $\log$ accuracy. The survival probability of the…
The effective cross section of double parton scattering in high-energy hadron collisions has been measured in proton--proton collisions, with significant variation among final-state observables, contrary to the idea of a universal value.…
Recent measurements of the diffractive deep-inelastic cross section are used to extract diffractive parton densities of the proton. These are subsequently applied in models to predict the production of jets and open charm in the final…
A particle with internal unobserved states diffusing in a force field will generally display effective advection-diffusion. The drift velocity is proportional to the mobility averaged over the internal states, or effective mobility, while…
We show that the hadroproduction of a pair of jets with large transverse energy in the central region bounded by rapidity gaps is an ideal process to see important double logarithmic QCD suppression effects. We compute the cross sections…
Hadronic jets are extremely abundant at the LHC, and testing QCD in various corners of phase-space is important to understand backgrounds and some specific signatures of new physics. In this article, various measurements aiming at probing…
By working out the kinematics of double parton scattering at short relative transverse distances, we obtain an explicit link between the transverse centres of mass, of the two hard partonic interactions, and the contributions to the…
The measurement of the triple-differential dijet production cross section as a function of the average transverse momentum $p_{T,\textrm{avg}}$, half the rapidity separation $y^{*}$, and the boost $y_{b}$ of the two leading jets in the…
Double diffractive Higgs production at $pp$ (or $\bar{p}p$) colliders continues to attract attention as a potential signal in the search for the boson. We present improved perturbative QCD estimates of the event rates for both the exclusive…
Predictions for the squared momentum transfer and missing mass dependence of the differential and integrated single- and double low missing-mass diffraction dissociation in the kinematical range of present and future LHC measurements are…
