      abstract     = {For the first time at LHC energies, the forward rapidity
                      gap spectra from proton-lead collisions for both proton and
                      lead dissociation processes are presented. The analysis is
                      performed over 10.4 units of pseudorapidity at a
                      center-of-mass energy per nucleon pair of
                      $\sqrt{s_\mathrm{NN}}$ = 8.16 TeV, almost 300 times higher
                      than in previous measurements of diffractive production in
                      proton-nucleus collisions. For lead dissociation processes,
                      which correspond to the pomeron-lead event topology, the
                      EPOS-LHC generator predictions are a factor of two below the
                      data, but the model gives a reasonable description of the
                      rapidity gap spectrum shape. For the pomeron-proton
                      topology, the EPOS-LHC, QGSJET II, and HIJING predictions
                      are all at least a factor of five lower than the data. The
                      latter effect might be explained by a significant
                      contribution of ultra-peripheral photoproduction events
                      mimicking the signature of diffractive processes. These data
                      may be of significant help in understanding the high energy
                      limit of quantum chromodynamics and for modeling cosmic ray
