✦ Synopsis
Measurements of diffractive D *± production in deep inelastic scattering using the 1995 -1997 ZEUS data are presented. Diffractive e+p --+ e+XN interactions are identified by the presence of a large rapidity gap in the final state. D *± candidates are identified from the D* --+ DOn decay mode, where the D O subsequently decays either to K-n + + (c.c.) or K-rc+rr-Tc + + (c.c.). The integrated D *± cross section along with differential D *± cross sections as a function of Q2, W, xr,, pT(D *±) and r/(D *±) have been measured in a limited kinematic region.
The fraction of D *+ events produced diffractively has also been measured.
