We present new results from ZEUS on diffractive deep inelastic scattering, γ

p → Xp, XN, for a wide range in 
. The diffractive cross section shows a steep decrease with t, dominant higher twist at low M
X
and predominant leading twist at large M
X
. For M
X
> 2 GeV, the diffractive structure function of the proton rises steeply as 
. The structure function of the Pomeron has a maximum near β = 0.5 suggesting that the lowest state of the Pomeron is a 
state. For β < 0.1, the pomeron structure function is rising as β → 0, and as Q
2 increases, similar to the proton structure function.
