Abstract
We analyze 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 flavor symmetric Pomeron parton distributions. It may also provide an additional constraint for the parton distribution functions in the proton.
