We analyse diffractive electroweak vector boson production in hadronic collisions and show that the single diffractive W boson production asymmetry in rapidity is a particularly good observable at the LHC to test the concept of the flavour symmetric pomeron parton distributions. It may also provide an additional constraint for the parton distribution functions in the proton.

The analysis of hadronic vector boson decays at LHC does not normally allow for interference with QCD production. These effects are studied here using the Sherpa package and can move by several GeV/c 2 the peak positions experiments would reconstruct
. However, their impact depends strongly on the kinematics involved. The shifts expected in boosted W and Z bosons, which have been the subject of experimental study, are explored for the first time. The effects in the channels examined are all very small or negligible, but this may not true if lower transverse momenta are analysed, for example in the experimental trigger systems.
We give detailed predictions for diffractive SUSY Higgs boson and top squark associated productions at the LHC via the exclusive double pomeron exchange mechanism. We study how the SUSY Higgs cross section and the signal over background ratio are enh
anced as a function of tangent beta in different regimes. The prospects are particularly promising in the ``anti-decoupling regime, which we study in detail. We also give the prospects for a precise measurement of the top squark mass using the threshold scan of central diffractive associated top squark events at the LHC.
We show that the double diffractive electroweak vector boson production in the $pp$ collisions at the LHC is an ideal probe of QCD based mechanisms of diffraction. Assuming the resolved Pomeron model with flavor symmetric parton distributions, the $W
$ production asymmetry in rapidity equals exactly zero. In other approaches, like the soft color interaction model, in which soft gluon exchanges are responsible for diffraction, the asymmetry is non-zero and equal to that in the inclusive $W$ production. In the same way, the ratio of the $W$ to $Z$ boson production is independent of rapidity in the models with resolved Pomeron in contrast to the predictions of the soft color interaction model.
We investigate the prospects of the diffractive production of $J/psi$ mesons at large momentum transfer $|t|$ at the future Electron Ion Collider in electron-proton collisions. In particular, we focus on the measurements of the rapidity gap size. The
model used for the calculations is based on the diffractive exchange of the Balitsky-Fadin-Kuraev-Lipatov perturbative Pomeron. Calculations for the cross section and the estimates for the rates assuming integrated luminosity of $10 , rm fb^{-1}$ are provided. Two experimental strategies were considered. First, measuring the rapidity gap size directly, by observing the activity in the forward part of the central detector, and second by putting a lower limit on the rapidity gap size in the case when the detector cannot measure forward activity. We find that, it is possible to measure at the EIC the dependence of the cross section on rapidity gap interval up to four units in rapidity. This should allow to measure the change of the cross section by a factor 1.6 expected due to the BFKL exchange. This is possible with the present setup of the detector which projects the coverage up to 3.5 units of rapidity. We conclude however, that the extension of the detector up to higher rapidity, for example to 4.5 would be desirable and provide even better lever arm for testing rapidity gap physics at the EIC.
Since the W and Z discovery, hadron colliders have provided a fertile ground, in which continuously improving measurements and theoretical predictions allow to precisely determine the gauge boson properties, and to probe the dynamics of electroweak a
nd strong interactions. This article will review, from a theoretical perspective, the role played by the study, at hadron colliders, of electroweak boson production properties, from the better understanding of the proton structure, to the discovery and studies of the top quark and of the Higgs, to the searches for new phenomena beyond the Standard Model.
