Observation of large rapidity gap events in charged current deep inelastic scattering at HERA

  • 1. Physikalisches Institut der Universitaet Bonn, Nussallee 12, D-53115 Bonn (Germany)

Description

Events with a large rapidity gap have been observed in e+p charged current DIS at HERA. The data collected with the ZEUS detector in the running period 1999 and 2000 correspond to an integrated luminosity of 61 pb-1. The excess in the yield of such events over the non-diffractive DIS expectation has been compared to models of diffractive scattering in the electroweak regime. The diffractive charged current cross section for the kinematic range Q2>200 GeV2 and xP<0.05 as well as its ratio to the total charged current cross section have been calculated
