Diffractive structure functions in nuclei

Abstract

We calculate proton and nuclear diffractive structure functions in the IPsat (Kowalski-Teaney) dipole model. This parametrization has previously been shown to provide good agreement with inclusive F2 measurements and exclusive vector meson measurements at HERA. We discuss how the impact parameter dependence crucially affects our analysis, in particular for small beta.
