Scientific paper

Diffraction is an old subject which has received much interest in recent years due to the advent of diffractive hard scattering. We discuss some theoretical models and experimental results that have shown new striking effects, e.g. rapidity gaps in jet and W production and in deep inelastic scattering. Many aspects can be described through the exchange of a pomeron with a parton content, but the pomeron concept is nevertheless problematic. New ideas, e.g. based on soft colour interactions, have been introduced to resolve these problems and provide a unified description of diffractive and non-diffractive events. This is part of the general unsolved problem of non-perturbative QCD and confinement.
