Diffraction at H1 and Zeus
arXiv:0906.1525
Abstract
The H1 and Zeus collaborations have measured the inclusive diffractive DIS cross section ep -> eXp and these measurements are in good agreement within a normalisation uncertainty. Diffractive parton density functions (DPDFs) have been extracted from NLO QCD fits to these data and the predictions of these DPDFs compare well with measurements of diffractive dijets in DIS, proving the validity of the factorisation approximations used in their extraction. The inclusive and dijet data are then used in a combined fit to constrain the diffractive singlet and gluon with good precision over the full phase space. The predictions of DPDFs are compared to diffractive dijets in photoproduction where the issue of survival probability in a hadron-hadron environment can be studied. Finally, exclusive diffractive vector meson production and deeply virtual Compton scattering have also been studied; the results compare reasonably well with the expectations of QCD and in particular with GPD models.
