Jet Production Cross Section with Double Pomeron Exchange

Abstract

I will discuss hadron-hadron collisions where the final state is kinematically of the kind associated with double-pomeron-exchange (DPE) and has large transverse momentum jets. I will show that in addition to the conventional factorized (FDPE) contribution, there is a non-factorized (NDPE) contribution which has no pomeron beam jet. Results of calculations from a simple model of DPE for two-jet total and differential cross sections at Tevatron energy scales are presented. The NDPE contribution is dominant.
