I review recent progress on the Higgs production in gamma gamma collisions at the photon mode of the Next Linear Collider (NLC). I mainly focus on two particular topics. The first topic is the Higgs-two photon vertex, which is sensitive to…
We study the photoproduction of $K^*(892)$ vector meson from both the charged and neutral reactions, $\gamma p \to K^{*+} \Lambda$ and $\gamma n \to K^{*0} \Lambda$. The production mechanisms that we consider include $t$-channel $K^*$, $K$,…
The reaction mechanisms of the following proton diffractive scattering processes are studied and compared with one another: $\gamma^* p\to Vp,\gamma^* p\to Xp, pp\to (\Lambda K^+)p$ and $pA\to \Lambda K^+A$ (Here, $\gamma^*$ stands for the…
We make predictions for the cross sections of diffractive dijet photoproduction in $pp$, $pA$ and $AA$ ultraperipheral collisions (UPCs) at the LHC during Runs 1 and 2 using next-to-leading perturbative QCD. We find that the resulting cross…
The background due to the direct diffractive dissociation of the photon into the $\pi^+\pi^-$-pair to the "elastic" diffractive $\rho^0$-meson production in electron-proton collisions is calculated. At large $Q^2$ the interference between…
The diffractive dissociation of virtual photons, gamma*p -> Xp, has been studied with the ZEUS detector at HERA by requiring a large rapidity gap between X and the outgoing proton, by analysing the mass distribution, M_X, of the hadronic…
The background due to the direct diffractive dissociation of the photon into the $\pi^+\pi^-$-pair to the "elastic" diffractive $\rho^0$-meson production in electron-proton collisions is calculated. The amplitude for the background process…
We analyze the reactions gamma+p => M+B, with M B being either K+ Lambda, K+ Sigma0, or pi+ n, within perturbative QCD, allowing for diquarks as quasi-elementary constituents of baryons. The diquark-model parameters and the quark-diquark…
At the electron-proton collider HERA the inclusive $D^{*\pm}$ meson photoproduction cross section has been measured with the H1 detector in two different, but partly overlapping, kinematical regions. For the first, where $<W_{\gamma p}>…
We study the exclusive production of pi-pi and rho-pi in hard gamma* gamma scattering in the forward kinematical region where the virtuality of one photon provides us with a hard scale in the process. The newly introduced concept of…
The production of charged kaon pairs in ultraperipheral heavy-ion collisions can proceed via photoproduction (gamma-Pomeron interaction) or via photon-photon fusion. An important contribution to this process arises from the decays of…
We consider semi-inclusive diphoton+jet and inclusive diphoton production in high-energy proton-nucleus collisions, treating the target nucleus as a Color-Glass-Condensate and the projectile proton in the parton model. We obtain the prompt…
The double-diffractive production of chi_c and chi_b mesons, with a rapidity gap on either side, is studied, using both the Regge formalism and the perturbative QCD approach. Due to the rather low scale, the exclusive double-diffractive…
We compute the rate for diffractive upsilon meson production at the Tevatron and the LHC. The upsilon is produced diffractively via the subprocess gamma + p -> upsilon + p where the initial photon is radiated off an incoming proton (or…
Cross sections for the reactions gamma^(*) gamma^(*) --> hadrons and gamma^(*) gamma^(*) --> 2 vector mesons are calculated as functions of energy (sqrt(s) > 20 GeV) and photon virtualities. Good agreement with experiment is obtained for…
The cross section of the diffractive process e^+p -> e^+Xp is measured at a centre-of-mass energy of 318 GeV, where the system X contains at least two jets and the leading final state proton p is detected in the H1 Very Forward Proton…
High transverse momentum (P_T) gamma-hadron correlations are currently being regarded as the 'golden channel' for the study of the medium produced in ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions by means of hard probes. This is due to several…
We propose a unified approach which describes both structure functions in the small-$x$ region and diffractive production in $\gamma^*p$-interactions. It is shown that the model, based on reggeon calculus and a quark-parton picture of the…
The next-to-leading-order (NLO) cross section for the production of heavy quarks at large transverse momenta ($p_\perp$) in $\gamma\gamma$ collisions is calculated with perturbative fragmentation functions (PFF's). This approach allows for…
We have shown that the lowest order QCD amplitude, i.e. the quark exchange contribution, to the forward production of a pair of longitudinally polarized rmesons in the scattering of two virtual photons gamma (Q1) gamma (Q2) rho rho…
