Abstract

In these proceedings we present CMS results on hard diffraction. Diffractive dijet production in pp collisions at √(s)=7 TeV is discussed. The cross section for dijet production is presented as a function of ξ, representing the fractional momentum loss of the scattered proton in single-diffractive events. The observation of W and Z boson production in events with a large pseudo-rapidity gap is also presented.
