Diffractive gluon production in DIS

C. M., Nucl. Phys. B 705 (2005) 319

Diffractive gluon production • The cross-section is derived

for an arbitrary target and for an incident dipole of sizer0= x0-x1

• Approximations: leading log(1/x) for the

emitted gluon (y = log(1/x)) the propagation through the

target is eikonal

Can we experimentally test this? extract QS?

kmax/QS = independent of Q², QS 1.5

• with MX2 >> Q2 has been measured (ZEUS)

• What about ?

• The jet should also be close to the rapidity gap to be identifed with the gluon jet of our calculation (the softest particule in the final state)

• Important limitation: at HERA QS < 1 Gev and k > 3 Gev one does not have access to the whole bump

Conclusion and outlook• In diffractive DIS at large mass, the dominant contribution to the cross-

section comes from the qqg part of the photon wavefunction dissociation of the photon

• We derived the diffractive photon dissociation cross-section photon + target X + gluon + gap + target expressed in terms of a one-dipole amplitude and a two-dipole amplitude

• As a function of the gluon transverse momentum, the cross-section is resonant with the scale at which unitarity effects become important observable with a great potential to study high-energy QCD

• Study using a saturation model for the dipole amplitudes, prediction for the HERA energy range strong potential for extracting QS and testing models
