Phys. Rev. D 60, 094009 (1999) [16 pages]Diffractive light quark jet and gluon jet production at hadron colliders in the two-gluon exchange modelReceived 23 March 1999; revised 1 June 1999; published 5 October 1999 Massless diquark jet and gluon jet production at large transverse momentum in the coherent diffractive processes at hadron colliders are studied in the two-gluon exchange parametrization of the Pomeron model. We use the helicity amplitude method to calculate the cross section formulas. We find that for the light quark jet and gluon jet production the diffractive process is related to the differential off-diagonal gluon distribution function in the proton. We estimate the production rate for these processes at the Fermilab Tevatron by approximating the off-diagonal gluon distribution function by the usual diagonal gluon distribution in the proton. We also use the helicity amplitude method to calculate the diffractive charm jet production at hadron colliders, by which we reproduce the leading logarithmic approximation result of this process we previously calculated. © 1999 The American Physical Society URL:
