Pomerons and Jet Events at HERA

Abstract

We study two and three jet events with a large rapidity gap at HERA. Unlike in the Ingelman-Schlein approach we do not adscribe a structure to the Pomeron. Instead, the coupling of the Pomeron to quarks or gluons is taken pointlike, which makes the model easy to test: the only degrees of freedom are the coupling constants of the Pomeron to the quarks or the gluons and a cutoff procedure to keep the Pomeron-gluon coupling well behaved.Comment: Latex fil
