Abstract
The measurements of rapidity gap cross sections and dijet production with a veto on additional central jet activity, performed at the ATLAS experiment at the LHC, are discussed. The rapidity gap cross section analysis measures the differential cross section as a function of the forward rapidity gap size. The data are compared to PYTHIA 8, PYTHIA 6 and PHOJET. The measured cross section is approximately 1mb per forward rapidity gap size for a gap size greater than 3. The measurement of dijet production with a veto on additional central jet activity studies the fraction of dijet events that remain after the application of a jet veto of 20 GeV in the rapidity interval bounded by the dijet system. This fraction is presented against the rapidity separation of the boundary dijets (in the range 0 < Δy < 6) and the average transverse momentum of the boundary jets (in the range 50 < pT < 500 GeV). The data are compared to a next-to-leading order plus parton shower prediction from the POWHEG-BOX and an all-order resummation using the HEJ calculation.
