Diffraction in ep collisions
Abstract
Description
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 state. A rapidity gap suppression factor for dijet production in diffractive photoproduction relative to diffractive deep-inelastic scattering is obtained using a model-independent comparison.
