1 Aspects of Diffraction at the Tevatron
Konstantin Goulianos The Rockefeller University & The CDF Collaboration CIPANP-2003, New York City, May 2003 Introduction Soft Diffraction Hard Diffraction Conclusion Selected reviews: hep-ex/ , hep-ex/ , hep-ph/ , hep-ph/ 19-24 May 2003 K. Goulianos, CIPANP-2003

2 What is hadronic diffraction?
Introduction What is hadronic diffraction? X Diffraction dissociation coherence KG, Phys. Rep. 101 (1983) 171 19-24 May 2003 K. Goulianos, CIPANP-2003

3 Diffraction and Rapidity Gaps
rapidity gaps are regions of rapidity devoid of particles Non-diffractive interactions: Diffractive interactions: rapidity gaps are formed by multiplicity fluctuations rapidity gaps, like diamonds, ‘live for ever’ From Poisson statistics: (r=particle density in rapidity space) Gaps are exponentially suppressed large rapidity gaps are signatures for diffraction 19-24 May 2003 K. Goulianos, CIPANP-2003

4 The Pomeron ? POMERON CONFINEMENT
Quark/gluon exchange across a rapidity gap: POMERON No particles radiated in the gap: the exchange is COLOR-SINGLET with quantum numbers of vacuum Rapidity gap formation: NON-PERTURBATIVE Diffraction probes the large distance aspects of QCD: POMERON CONFINEMENT ? PARTONIC STRUCTURE FACTORIZATION 19-24 May 2003 K. Goulianos, CIPANP-2003

SUMMARY Soft and hard conclusions 1) Differential shapes agree with factorization based Regge predictions 2) Single-gap production rates are suppressed as the energy increases 3) Renormalizing the gap probability to unity yields correct rates 4) Two-gap to one-gap ratios are ~ equal to Same general features as in soft diffraction SOFT COLOR FACTOR HARD 19-24 May 2003 K.
