Abstract
The azimuthal angle correlation of Mueller-Navelet jets at hadron colliders is studied in the NLO BFKL formalism. We highlight the need of collinear improvements in the kernel to obtain good convergence properties and we obtain better fits for the Tevatron data than at LO accuracy. We also estimate these correlations for larger rapidity differences available at the LHC.
