Q Qbar g contribution to diffractive J/psi electroproduction

arXiv:hep-ph/0105082 · doi:10.1088/1126-6708/2002/04/036

Abstract

We study the diffractive electroproduction of quarkonia from quark-antiquark-gluon states in the photon wave function. We show that these states contribute to the leading-power and leading-logarithm level. We suggest the measurement of J/psi production via inelastic diffraction to study color-transparency and color-opacity effects in the diffractive gluon distribution.
