CDF has recently measured a large number of double parton scatterings. The observed value of $\sigma_{eff}$, the non perturbative parameter which characterizes the process, is considerably smaller as compared with the naive expectation. The…
The theory of the perturbative pomeron, due to Lipatov and collaborators, is used to compute the probability of observing parton-parton elastic scattering and rapidity gaps between jets in hadron collisions at very high energies.
It has been suggested that two-photon exchange corrections could explain the discrepancy between Rosenbluth extractions of the proton form factors and recent polarization transfer measurements. We propose a precise comparison of…
We derive double distributions for the proton in a simple model that contains scalar as well as axial-vector diquark correlations. The model parameters are tuned so that the experimentally measured electromagnetic form factors are…

The soft physics approach to form factors and Compton scattering at moderately large momentum transfer is reviewed. It will be argued that in that approach the Compton cross section is given by the Klein-Nishina cross section multiplied by…
We discuss two topics in double parton scattering (DPS) theory that have been the subject of recent research interest. First, the role of `double parton splitting' diagrams in DPS is discussed. We outline the `double PDF' description of…
Double parton distributions (DPDs) receive a short-distance contribution from a single parton splitting to yield the two observed partons. We investigate this mechanism at next-to-leading order (NLO) in perturbation theory. Technically, we…
The framework to compute the cross sections for the production of particles with high mass and/or large transverse momentum in double- (DPS), triple- (TPS), and in general $n$-parton scatterings, from the corresponding single-parton…

We investigate the potential to observe double parton scattering at the Large Hadron Collider in p p -> W b bbar X -> l nu b bbar X at 7 TeV. Our analysis tests the efficacy of several kinematic variables in isolating the double parton…
We extend our previous studies of double-parton scattering (DPS) to simultaneous production of $c \bar c$ and $b \bar b$ and production of two pairs of $b \bar b$. The calculation is performed within factorized ansatz. Each parton…
It is argued that the dynamics of the elastic scattering of high-energy protons at intermediate transferred momenta changes with the energy increase. It evolves from the multiple scattering at the external layer for energies about 10 GeV to…
A new model of QCD parton shower is proposed which is dedicated to two-photon process in $e^+ e^-$ scattering. When hadron jets are produced, the photon may resolve into quark-antiquark pairs so that the structure functions of the photon…
Revised formulas for the inclusive cross section of a triple parton scattering process in a hadron collision are suggested basing on the modified collinear three-parton distributions. The possible phenomenological issues are discussed.
A few examples of quickly developing field of double parton scattering are discussed. We present arguments that the production of two pairs of charm quark-antiquark is the golden reaction to study the double parton scattering effects. We…
An essential prerequisite for quark-gluon plasma production in nuclear collisions is cross-talk between the partons from different nucleons in the colliding nuclei. The initial density of partons is determined by the parton distribution…
