摘要
The diffractive production of open charm in deep-inelastic scattering is studied in the semiclassical approach which has been proposed recently. In this approach, the leading order process contains a charm quark pair and an additional gluon in the diffractive final state. The p(perpendicular to)-spectrum and the diffractive mass distribution are evaluated and compared with predictions based on perturbative two-gluon exchange calculations for charm quark pair production. It is shown that the p(perpendicular to)-spectrum provides a clear test of the underlying partonic process whereas the diffractive mass distribution reflects the non-perturbative mechanism of colour neutralization.
