Diffractive rho production with an AdS/QCD holographic wavefunction for the rho meson

Abstract

We report on the results of our recent research published in [1] that shows that AdS/QCD generates predictions for the rate of diffractive \rho-meson electroproduction that are in agreement with data collected at the HERA electron-proton collider [2,3]. Preliminary results of this research were presented in [4].
