Diffractive Higgs boson photoproduction in peripheral collisions

preprint2008arXivOpen access

Abstract

An alternative process is proposed for the diffractive Higgs boson production in peripheral pppp collisions, exploring it through the photon-proton interaction by Double Pomeron Exchange. It is estimated the event rate of the diffractive Higgs production in central rapidity for Tevatron and LHC energies, being of the order of 1 fb, in agreement to the predictions from other diffractive processes. The results are confronted with those obtained from a similar approach of the Durham group.
