Double parton scatterings in high energy hadronic collisions

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-10-30 v1

Abstract

CDF has recently measured a large number of double parton scatterings. The observed value of σeff\sigma_{eff}, the non perturbative parameter which characterizes the process, is considerably smaller as compared with the naive expectation. The small value of σeff\sigma_{eff} is likely to be an indication of the importance of the two-body parton correlations in the many-body parton distributions of the proton.
