Abstract

We calculate the rate of double parton scattering (DPS) in proton - proton collisions in the framework of the recently proposed hot spot model of the nucleon structure. The resulting rate, especially for the case of three hot spots, appears to be in tension with the current experimental data on DPS at the LHC.
