Abstract
We analyse the azimuthal decorrelation of Mueller-Navelet dijets produced in the collisions at Tevatron energies using a BFKL framework which incorporates dominant subleading effects. We show that these effects significantly reduce the decorrelation yet they are still insufficient to give satisfactory description of experimental data. However a good description of the data is obtained after incorporating within formalism the effective rapidity defined by Del Duca and Schmidt.

1+9 pages, 6 eps figures; the final version to appear in Phys. Lett. B; one reference added, the use of effective rapidity and the need for BFKL resummmation for small azimuthal angles better motivated
