We demonstrate that the global properties of the ``rapidity gap'' events, observed at HERA, can be understood based on electron-gluon scattering as the underlying partonic process. Using the measured inclusive structure function $F_2$ to…

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…

Highlights are presented mainly from two recent measurements of the diffractive Deep Inelastic Scattering cross section at HERA. In the first, the process $ep\to eXp$ is studied by tagging the leading final state proton. In the second,…

We examine diffractive proton-proton scattering. Using a functional integral approach we derive the scattering amplitudes, which are governed by the expectation value of lightlike Wegner-Wilson loops. This expectation value is then…

Predictions for deep Virtual Compton Scattering are obtained in a two-component dipole model of diffraction. The model automatically includes hard and soft components and implicitly allows for ``hadronic'' contributions via large dipoles.…

We present a QCD-based model where rescattering between final state partons in deep inelastic scattering leads to events with large rapidity gaps and a leading proton. In the framework of this model the amplitude for multiple gluon…

Diffractive deep inelastic events with a large rapidity gap are analyzed by using a Regge model for the pomeron flux and a gluonic content for the pomeron. Contrary to the expectations, the simplest assumption for the pomeron trajectory…

Results on soft and hard diffraction are briefly reviewed and placed in a QCD perspective using a parton model approach. Issues addressed include factorization, scaling properties, universality of rapidity gap formation, and unitarity.…

We study diffractive scattering cross sections, focusing on the rapidity gap distribution in realistic kinematics at future electron-ion colliders. Our study consists in numerical solutions of the QCD evolution equations in both fixed and…

The diffractive program of the CDF Collaboration at the Fermilab Tevatron p-pbar collider is reviewed with emphasis on recent results from Run II at a c.m.s. energy of 1.96 TeV. Results are presented on the x-Bjorken and Q^2 dependence of…

Using the QCD dipole picture of BFKL dynamics, the quasi elastic component of the diffractive gamma*-dipole cross-section, dominating at small M^2/Q^2, is calculated.

The diffractive production of high-$p_{\perp}$ jets in deep-inelastic scattering is studied in the semiclassical approach. The $p_{\perp}$-spectra of $q {\bar q}$ and $q {\bar q} g$ diffractive final states are found to be qualitatively…

The spectrum of partons in a QCD jet becomes independent of the primary energy in the low momentum limit. This follows within the perturbative QCD from the colour coherence in soft gluon branching. Remarkably, the hadrons follow such…

We argue that at moderately large momentum transfer -t <10 GeV^2, hadronic form factors and wide-angle Compton scattering amplitudes are dominated by mechanism corresponding to overlap of soft wave functions. We show that the soft…

We re-examine the issue of the pQCD factorization scale in the exclusive rho production in diffractive DIS from the k_t-factorization point of view. We find that this scale differs significantly from, and possesses much flatter Q^2 behavior…

We discuss basic concepts and properties of diffractive phenomena in soft hadron collisions and in deep-inelastic scattering at low Bjorken-x. The paper is not a review of the rapidly developing field but presents an attempt to show in…

A detailed analysis is presented of the diffractive deep-inelastic scattering process $ep\to eXY$, where $Y$ is a proton or a low mass proton excitation carrying a fraction $1 - \xpom > 0.95$ of the incident proton longitudinal momentum and…

Phenomenological studies on the proton structure function F^2 have been carried out to investigate the behavior of F^2, i.e. its x and Q^2 dependence, in the transition from the deep-inelastic scattering region (Q^2 >> 1 GeV^2) to the…

We review QCD based descriptions of diffractive deep inelastic scattering emphasizing the role of models with parton saturation. These models provide natural explanation of such experimentally observed facts as the constant ratio of…

Recent experimental results on inclusive diffractive scattering and on exclusive vector meson production are reviewed. The dynamical picture of hard diffraction emerging in perturbative QCD is highlighted.
