This note presents some selected results on soft QCD studies done by the D0 collaboration at the Tevatron collider. Results on elastic proton-antiproton cross section, double parton scattering, underlying event and exclusive diffractive production are discussed, together with their implication for the LHC.
This Paper summarize the present status and near term perspectives for Diffractive Physics at Tevatron. We describe the new detectors that are being installed around the CDF and D0 interaction regions, and discuss he physics topics accessible in view of these upgrades.
Hard diffraction in events with dijets and rapidity gaps has been studied by DØand CDF for three processes: hard color singlet exchange, hard single diffraction, and hard double pomeron exchange, using Tevatron $\bar pp$ data at $\sqrt{s}$ = 630 GeV and 1.8 TeV. Measurements of rates, $η, E_T$ and $\sqrt{s}$ dependencies are presented and comparisons made with predictions of several models.
