Factorization properties of the diffraction dissociation of longitudinal photons
نویسندگان
چکیده
We develop the pQCD description of the diffraction dissociation (DD) of longitudinal photons. We demonstrate that the longitudinal diffractive structure function does not factor into the flux of pomerons and the partonic structure function of the pomeron, thus defying the usually assumed Regge factorization. In contrast to DD of the transverse photons, DD of the longitudinal photons is strongly peaked at β = 1. We comment on duality properties of DD in deep inelastic scattering. E-mail: [email protected]

Excitation of open charm and factorization breaking in rapidity gap events at HERA
We develop the pQCD description of diffraction excitation of heavy flavours in DIS and we derive the analytic formulas for the mass spectrum in leading logmf . The result illustrates nicely non-factorization properties of the QCD pomeron. We predict a very steep rise of the charm content of diffraction dissociation of photons at small xIP. We evaluate the contribution of open charm to scaling v...
متن کاملMultiparticle Production in High-mass Diffraction Dissociation and the Interplay of Photons and Pomerons
Multiple interaction models satisfying s-channel unitarity predict that, in contrast to inelastic processes, factorization is violated in diffractive processes. The size of this effect can be characterized in terms of the rapidity gap survival probability. The possibility of its measurement at HERA is pointed out. Furthermore a method to measure photon diffraction dissociation at LEP2 and plann...
متن کاملExclusive production of dijets in QCD
We study in a framework of QCD collinear factorization the processes of a pion and a photon diffraction dissociation into two jets. The structure of non-factorizable contributions is discussed. We argue that coherent production of hard dijets by linearly polarized real photons can provide direct evidence for chirality violation in hard processes, the first measurement of the magnetic susceptibi...
متن کاملHard Diffraction From Quasi - Elastic Dipole Scattering
The contribution to diffraction dissociation of virtual photons due to quasi-elastic scattering of the q-¯ q component is calculated in the framework of the QCD dipole picture. Both longitudinal and transverse components of the cross-section are given. It is shown that, at fixed mass of the diffractively produced system, quantum mechanical interference plays an important rôle. Phenomenological ...
متن کاملDiffractive Dissociation in Deep Inelastic Scattering at Hera
The diffraction dissociation of virtual photons is considered in the framework of conventional Regge theory. It is shown that the recent HERA data on large rapidity gap events can be successfully described in terms of the Pomeron structure function. Using Regge factorization, the latter can be related to the deuteron structure function. The parameters which relate these two structure functions ...
