  12. Summary H1 Analysis of Exclusive Multiphoton Final States Clear Picture : A very clean test of a non-perturbative QCD prediction (SVM) has been performed. Only exclusive final states with odd number of photons are observed and in good agreement with expectations from Pomeron exchange. Even number states can be detected but are not seen. Limits clearly exclude the predictions from the SVM model (Dosch, Berger) The Odderon has not been seen Karlheinz Meier - Kirchhof-Institut für Physik - Heidelberg University - Vth Workshop on Small-x and Diffractive Physics - Fermilab - September 2002

  16. H1 : Diffractive 2-Jet Production in Deep Inelastic Scattering Data from H1Eur.Phys.J. C20 (2001) 4 < Q2 < 80 GeV2 Use both, NLO (s2) QCD matrix elements for parton scattering (DISENT implementation) and NLO diffractive parton distributions in addition to Regge-factorisation for the Pomeron DISENT NLO set-up : µT2 = pT2 (varied for systematics) µf2 = 40 GeV2 4QCD = 200 MeV Hadronisation corrections LO (without parton shower) far below data, better description with full NLO including errors from renormalization scale (20%) but not from diffractive parton distributions Karlheinz Meier - Kirchhof-Institut für Physik - Heidelberg University - Vth Workshop on Small-x and Diffractive Physics - Fermilab - September 2002

  17. H1 : Other 2-Jet DIS distributions compared to full NLO Consistent picture Decrease of NLO corrections for larger Q2 NLO describes all distributions in shape and normalisation reasonable well Karlheinz Meier - Kirchhof-Institut für Physik - Heidelberg University - Vth Workshop on Small-x and Diffractive Physics - Fermilab - September 2002

  18. H1 : Diffractive 2-Jet Production with Real Photons (Q2 ≈ 0) Jets : pT,1(2) > 5(4) GeV Compare to leading order matrix element Monte-Carlo with parton showers taking care of higher order effects : RAPGAP Use new LO fit for diffractive parton distributions from H1 and compare to previous fit. New LO fit with LO Monte-Carlo including parton shower describes data well, major improvement compared to old fit. Karlheinz Meier - Kirchhof-Institut für Physik - Heidelberg University - Vth Workshop on Small-x and Diffractive Physics - Fermilab - September 2002

  19. H1 : Diffractive 2-Jets (Q2 ≈ 0) for different x x = 1 : Direct, DIS like Interaction x < 1 : Resolved, Hadron-Hadron like Interaction Continuous (all x)good description of H1 photoproduction 2-Jet data with model based on new LO Fit Fit equally well suited for DIS and photoproduction, no indication of factorisation failure Karlheinz Meier - Kirchhof-Institut für Physik - Heidelberg University - Vth Workshop on Small-x and Diffractive Physics - Fermilab - September 2002

  20. H1 : Diffractive D* Production in Deep Inelastic Scattering Data from H1Phys.Lett. B520 (2001) 2 < Q2 < 100 GeV2 Use both, NLO calculation for D* (HVQDIS) and NLO diffractive parton distributions in addition to Regge-factorisation for the Pomeron HVQDIS NLO set-up : µT2 = Q2 + 4mc2 (mc= 1.5 GeV) (varied for systematics) µf2 = µT2 4QCD = 200 MeV Peterson fragmentation function Good agreement between full NLO calculation and data in shape and normalisation, NLO correction smaller than for jet production Karlheinz Meier - Kirchhof-Institut für Physik - Heidelberg University - Vth Workshop on Small-x and Diffractive Physics - Fermilab - September 2002

  21. H1 : Other D* DIS distributions compared to full NLO Consistent picture Some decrease of NLO corrections for larger Q2 NLO describes all distributions in shape and normalisation reasonable well Karlheinz Meier - Kirchhof-Institut für Physik - Heidelberg University - Vth Workshop on Small-x and Diffractive Physics - Fermilab - September 2002

  22. ZEUS : Diffractive D* Production in Deep Inelastic Scattering DESY-03-094 1.5 < Q2 < 200 GeV2 0.02 < y < 0.7 XP < 0.035  < 0.8 pT(D*) > 1.5 GeV |(D*)| < 1.5 Signal of 4976 103 Mesons (cross section 0.521 nb) Karlheinz Meier - Kirchhof-Institut für Physik - Heidelberg University - Vth Workshop on Small-x and Diffractive Physics - Fermilab - September 2002

  23. ZEUS : Diffractive Event Fraction for Open Charm Diffractive fraction of of open charm is 6.4% No strong dependence on W, Q2, x(D) Rather distinct dependence on pT and , well understood in the framework on NLO QCD Karlheinz Meier - Kirchhof-Institut für Physik - Heidelberg University - Vth Workshop on Small-x and Diffractive Physics - Fermilab - September 2002

  24. ZEUS : Differential Open Charm Cross-Section NLO calculation with (old) gluon dominated fit to diffractive parton distribution functions (ACTW-B) gives good description of data Two gluon echange models SATRAP and BJLW. BJLW with gluon pT cut describes data only for low xP Karlheinz Meier - Kirchhof-Institut für Physik - Heidelberg University - Vth Workshop on Small-x and Diffractive Physics - Fermilab - September 2002

  25. ZEUS : Extraction the Open Charm Contribution to F2D Compare to NLO QCD with different fits to diffractive structure function (ACTW) Clear preference for gluon dominated fit B, other fits completely excluded Consistent set of diffractive structure function found (e.g. jets and open charm) Rather strong dependence on gluon behaviour in structure function Karlheinz Meier - Kirchhof-Institut für Physik - Heidelberg University - Vth Workshop on Small-x and Diffractive Physics - Fermilab - September 2002

  26. Conclusions • Final States from (real) Diffraction have reached a very detailed level of understanding • The factorisation picture works at HERA for virtual as as well as for real photons • Consistent modelling of jets and charmed meson production in complete NLO is in agreement with the data taken. • The exchange of „vacuum quantum numbers“ (i.e. the Pomeron) is sufficient to describe all HERA data. There is so far no experimental hint for the existence of the Odderon (3 gluons....?). However, statistics only allows to probe the level of the SVM prediction. There is a lot to gain from HERA II in this area. Karlheinz Meier - Kirchhof-Institut für Physik - Heidelberg University - Vth Workshop on Small-x and Diffractive Physics - Fermilab - September 2002
