Pomeron structure and diffractive parton distributions

Measurements of the diffractive structure function, F2D, of the proton at HERA are used to extract the partonic structure of the Pomeron. Regge Factorization is tested. The analysis is based on the next to leading order QCD evolution equations. The results obtained from various data sets are compared. An analysis of the uncertainties in determining the parton distributions is provided. The probability of diffraction is calculated using the obtained results.
