Description

Production of heavy photons (Drell-Yan), gauge bosons, Higgs bosons, heavy flavors, which is treated within the QCD parton model as a result of hard parton-parton collision, should be treated as a bremsstrahlung process seeing in the rest frame of the target. The main observation is a dramatic breakdown of diffractive QCD factorization due to the interplay between soft and hard interactions, which dominates these hard diffractive processes.
