Experimental review of diffractive phenomena
arXiv:hep-ex/0501052 · doi:10.1016/j.nuclphysa.2005.03.152
Abstract
A review is given of the measurements of the hard diffractive interactions in recent years from two high-energy colliders, the HERA collider and the Tevatron collider. The structure of the diffractive exchange in terms of partons, the factorisation properties and the ratio of diffractive to non-diffractive cross sections are discussed.
