Behaviour of the forward peak in hard diffractive leptoproduction of vector mesons
E. Gotsman, E. Levin, U. Maor
Abstract
The measured forward slope in elastic and inelastic leptoproduction of vector mesons differ by a substantial amount. In an attempt to describe this phenomenon we construct a two radii model for the target proton, and estimate the effective parameters of the hard Pomeron obtained from a pQCD dipole model with eikonal shadowing corrections (SC). We show that the SC reduce the intercept of the hard Pomeron and generate an effective shrinkage of the forward peak and a diffractive dip at |t| ≈ 1 GeV2, which appears to affect the value of the experimentally measured slope.
