Motivations • Study of inclusive and diffractive cross sections • Pomeron plays a particular and very important role in soft process at high energy strong interaction • Study of heavy quarkonium production mechanism • Study the nature of Pomeron in the QCD framework • Investigation of the effects from multiple Pomeron scattering • gap survival probability factor • Analysis using recent parametrization for Pomeron structure function H1 Collaboration VII Latin American Symposium on High Energy Physics IX Argentinian Symposium of Particles and Fields San Carlos de Bariloche 14-21 Jan 2009
Diffractive Process • Rapidity (y) gaps no particle production • Hadron-hadron collisions 1% • Pomeron carries the quantum numbers of the vacuum pz proton momentum • Measured also at HERA (DESY) collider (H1 and Zeus Collaboration) • DDIS contributes substantially to the cross section 10% of visible low-x events VII Latin American Symposium on High Energy Physics IX Argentinian Symposium of Particles and Fields San Carlos de Bariloche 14-21 Jan 2009
DiffractiveDIS at HERA Inclusive DIS: Probes partonic structure of the proton • Q2: 4-momentum exchange • W: p center of mass energy • x: fraction of p momentum carried • by struck quark • xIP: fraction of p momentum carried • by the Pomeron (IP) • β: fraction of IP momentum carried • by struck quark X Diffractive DIS: Probes structure of the exchanged color singlet 1 X 1 INGELMAN, G.; SCHLEIN, P.
