Abstract
This lecture presents a short review of the main features of diffractive processes and QCD inspired models. It includes the following topics: (1) Quantum mechanics of diffraction: general properties; (2) Color dipole description of diffraction; (3) Color transparency; (4) Soft diffraction in hard reactions: DIS, Drell-Yan, Higgs production; (5) Why Pomerons interact weakly; (6) Small gluonic spots in the proton; (7) Diffraction near the unitarity bound: the Goulianos-Schlein "puzzle"; (8) Diffraction on nuclei: diffractive Color Glass; (9) CGC and gluon shadowing.
