We present a general, model independent argument demonstrating that gluons produced in high energy hadronic collision are necessarily correlated in rapidity and also in the emission angle. The strength of the correlation depends on the…
We consider the structure of divergences in Drell-Yan process with small transverse momentum. The factorization proof is not trivial because various kinds of divergences are intertwined in the collinear and soft parts at high orders. We…

We calculate cross section for production of $\chi_c$ pairs in proton-proton collisions. The cross section for the $g g \to \chi_{c J_1} \chi_{c J_2}$ is considerably smaller (especially for $\chi_{c 1} \chi_{c 1}$ final state) than that…
