Dr Samuel Wallon (LPT Orsay and UPMC university)23/07/2011 12:15QCDParallel session talkWe present the first next-to-leading BFKL study of the cross section and azimuthal decorrellation of Mueller Navelet jets. This includes both next-to-leading corrections to the Green's function and next-to-leading corrections to the Mueller Navelet vertices. The obtained results for standard observables proposed for studies of Mueller Navelet jets show that both sources of corrections are of...Go to contribution page

Richard Polifka23/07/2011 12:30Parallel session talkThe cross section for the diffractive deep-inelastic scattering process ep -> e X p is measured, with the leading final state proton detected in the H1 Forward Proton Spectrometer. The data are compared to perturbative QCD predictions at next-to-leading order based on diffractive parton distribution functions previously extracted from complementary measurements of inclusive diffractive...Go to contribution page

Paul Laycock23/07/2011 12:45QCDParallel session talkThe Large Hadron electron Collider (LHeC) is a proposed facility which will exploit the new world of energy and intensity offered by the LHC for electron-proton scattering, through the addition of a new electron accelerator. This contribution, which is derived from the draft CERN-ECFA-NuPECC Conceptual Design report (due for release in 2011), addresses the expected impact of the LHeC precision...Go to contribution page
