Elastic photon-initiated production at the LHC: the role of hadron-hadron interactions (2021)
Journal Article
Harland-Lang, L., Khoze, V., & Ryskin, M. G. (2021). Elastic photon-initiated production at the LHC: the role of hadron-hadron interactions. SciPost Physics, 11(3), https://doi.org/10.21468/scipostphys.11.3.064

We analyse in detail the role of additional hadron–hadron interactions in elastic photon– initiated (PI) production at the LHC, both in p p and heavy ion collisions. We first demonstrate that the source of difference between our predictions and other... Read More about Elastic photon-initiated production at the LHC: the role of hadron-hadron interactions.

Hunting for QCD instantons at the LHC in events with large rapidity gaps (2021)
Journal Article
Khoze, V., Khoze, V., Milne, D., & Ryskin, M. (2021). Hunting for QCD instantons at the LHC in events with large rapidity gaps. Physical Review D, 104(5), https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevd.104.054013

We outline a strategy of how to search for QCD instantons of invariant mass 20–60 GeVin diffractive events in low-luminosity runs at the LHC. We show that, by imposing appropriate selection criteria on the final states, one can select the kinematic r...

Dynamics of diffractive dissociation (2021)
Journal Article
Khoze, V., Martin, A., & Ryskin, M. (2021). Dynamics of diffractive dissociation. The European Physical Journal C, 81(2), Article 175. https://doi.org/10.1140/epjc/s10052-021-08953-9

We describe a QCD based model which incorporates the main properties of the inclusive particle distributions expected for diffractive processes, including the diffractive dissociation at high energies. We study, in turn, the total cross section, σtot... Read More about Dynamics of diffractive dissociation.
