Central Exclusive Di-jet Production at the Tevatron
We perform a phenomenological analysis of dijet production in double pomeron exchange at the Tevatron. We find that the CDF Run I results do not rule out the presence of an exclusive dijet component, as predicted by Khoze, Martin and Ryskin (KMR). With the high statistics CDF Run II data, we predict that an exclusive component at the level predicted by KMR may be visible, although the observation will depend on accurate modelling of the inclusive double pomeron exchange process. We also compare to the predictions of the DPEMC Monte Carlo, which contains a non-perturbative model for the central exclusive process. We show that the perturbative model of KMR gives different predictions for the di-jet ET dependence in the high di-jet mass fraction region than non-perturbative models.

ExHuME: A Monte Carlo Event Generator for Exclusive Diffraction
We have written the Exclusive Hadronic Monte Carlo Event (ExHuME) generator. ExHuME implements the perturbative QCD calculation of Khoze, Martin and Ryskin of the process pp-> p+X+p, where X is a centrally produced colour singlet system.
