TL;DR
This paper presents new QCD fits to HERA diffractive data, uses these to predict dijet mass distributions at the Tevatron, and discusses the potential for exclusive events and future LHC prospects.
Contribution
It introduces updated parton densities from HERA data and applies them to predict diffractive phenomena at the Tevatron and LHC.
Findings
Predicted dijet mass fraction shapes at Tevatron
Evidence for exclusive diffractive events
Prospects for observing diffraction at LHC
Abstract
We describe new QCD fits to diffractive cross sections measured at HERA and we use the parton densities derived from these fits to predict the shape of the dijet mass fraction in double Pomeron exchange at the Tevatron. We discuss the existence of exclusive events in this dijet channel and some prospects are given for the LHC.
