This study presents an analysis of diffractive dijets in photoproduction, utilizing data from the ZEUS collaboration (1999-2000). Focusing on single differential cross sections, the research investigates the gluon content of the Pomeron and the resolved photon processes. Key findings highlight the absence of suppression in resolved processes compared to direct processes at leading order (LO). The analysis incorporates Monte Carlo simulations, showing that the data aligns closely with theoretical predictions. The work contributes significant insights into the factorization-breaking effects observed in proton-proton collisions.

Diffractive dijets in photoproduction Parton momenta in the Pomeron ( IP ): reconstructed by jets Dominant process: gluon-intiated process (e.g. boson gluon fusion) Sensitive to the gluon content of the Pomeron zIPobs longitudinal momentum fraction of the IP taken by the dijet Direct process: total longitudinal momentum of taken by the dijet Diffractive dijets in photoproduction
The resolved process in diffractive dijets in photoproduction Resolved process: • exchanged photon: source of partons like a hadron • similar to hadron - hadron collision • dominant process at low xobs xobs longitudinal momentum fraction of the taken by the dijet Diffractive dijets in photoproduction
Factorization breaking in pp collisions • Possible mechanism of suppression: secondary interactions filling the rapidity gap. Is there also a suppression of resolved processes, which are supposedly similar to pp ? • pp collisions at TEVATRON:suppression of diffractive dijetsby a factor of approx. 10(factorization breaking) Diffractive dijets in photoproduction
Suppression of resolved processes at NLO • M.Klasen and G.Kramer made NLO calculations and compared them to H1 results. • No suppression at LO • At NLO, H1 data is well reproduced when the resolved part is suppressed by a factor of 0.34 • Only suppression at NLO ?
