Abstract

The diffractive production of high-p jets in deep-inelastic scattering is studied in the semiclassical approach. The p-spectra of q q and q q g diffractive final states are found to be qualitatively different. For q q final states, which are produced by `hard' colour-singlet exchange, the p-spectrum is much softer than for q q g final states, where the colour neutralization is `soft'. Furthermore, the two different final states can be clearly distinguished by their diffractive mass distributions.
