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.

We describe the current status of the diffractive vector meson production calculations within the k_t-factorization approach. Since the amplitude of the vector meson production off a proton is expressed via the differential gluon structure function ( DGSF), we take a closer look at the latter and present results of our new improved determination of the DGSF from the structure function F_2p. Having determined the differential glue, we proceed to the k_t-factorization results for the production of various vector mesons. We argue that the properties of the vector meson production can reveal the internal spin-angular and radial structure of the vector meson.

We present a first, detailed study of diffractive dijet photoproduction at the recently approved electron-ion collider (EIC) at BNL. Apart from establishing the kinematic reaches for various beam types, energies and kinematic cuts, we make precise pr edictions at next-to-leading order (NLO) of QCD in the most important kinematic variables. We show that the EIC will provide new and more precise information on the diffractive parton density functions (PDFs) in the pomeron than previously obtained at HERA, illuminate the still disputed mechanism of global vs. only resolved-photon factorization breaking, and provide access to a completely new quantity, i.e. nuclear diffractive PDFs.
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.
We consider the fidelity of the vector meson dominance (VMD) assumption as an instrument for relating the electromagnetic vector-meson production reaction $e + p to e^prime + V + p$ to the purely hadronic process $V + p to V+p$. Analyses of the photo n vacuum polarisation and the photon-quark vertex reveal that such a VMD Ansatz might be reasonable for light vector-mesons. However, when the vector-mesons are described by momentum-dependent bound-state amplitudes, VMD fails for heavy vector-mesons: it cannot be used reliably to estimate either a photon-to-vector-meson transition strength or the momentum dependence of those integrands that would arise in calculations of the different reaction amplitudes. Consequently, for processes involving heavy mesons, the veracity of both cross-section estimates and conclusions based on the VMD assumption should be reviewed, e.g., those relating to hidden-charm pentaquark production and the origin of the proton mass.

We discuss the prospects of diffractive dijet photoproduction at the EIC to distinguish different fits of diffractive proton PDFs, different schemes of factorization breaking, to determine diffractive nuclear PDFs and pion PDFs from leading neutron production.
