We consider the inclusive process where a pair of identified hadrons having large transverse momenta is produced in high-energy proton-proton collisions. We concentrate on the kinematics where the two identified hadrons in the final state…
Using the standard Balitsky-Fadin-Kuraev-Lipatov (BFKL) approach, with partial inclusion of next-to-leading order effects, we propose the inclusive hadroproduction of a Higgs boson and of a jet, featuring large transverse momenta and well…
The little Higgs model provides an alternative to traditional candidates for new physics at the TeV scale. The new heavy gauge bosons predicted by this model should be observable at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). We discuss how the LHC…
We study the associated jet multiplicity arising from t-channel BFKL gluon evolution in forward dijet production at hadron colliders. Previous results have shown that the effect of conserving overall energy and momentum is to introduce a…
We demonstrate that rapidity separated di-hadron spectra in high multiplicity proton-proton collisions at the LHC can be quantitatively described by a combination of BFKL and saturation dynamics. Based on these results, we predict the…
We propose the study of new observables in LHC inclusive events with three tagged jets, one in the forward direction, one in the backward direction and both well-separated in rapidity from the each other (Mueller-Navelet jets), together…
We study the correlation in azimuthal angle between Mueller-Navelet jets produced in hadron-hadron collisions. We argue that this observable would test the BFKL approach at next-to-leading logarithmic accuracy. In order to motivate such a…
A study of cross sections and azimuthal correlation moments for the inclusive production of two, light charged hadrons featuring large transverse momenta and well separated in rapidity at LHC energies, including BFKL resummation effects…
The production of jet pairs with small transverse momentum and large relative rapidity in high energy hadron-hadron collisions is studied. The rise of the parton-level cross section with increasing rapidity gap is a fundamental prediction…
The study of the production of Mueller-Navelet jets at hadron colliders, characterized as two forward jets separated by a large interval of rapidity, is known to be one of the best possible tests of the high energy dynamics of QCD. We…
We propose to study at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) the inclusive production of a pair of hadrons (a "di-hadron" system) in a kinematics where two detected hadrons with high transverse momenta are separated by a large interval of…
Higgs physics at hadron colliders as the LHC is reviewed within the Standard Model (SM) and its minimal supersymmetric extension (MSSM) by summarizing the present state-of-the-art of theoretical predictions for the production cross sections…
Multi-jet production at the LHC is an important process to study. In particular, events with final state kinematic configurations where we have two jets widely separated in rapidity with similar pT and lots of mini-jets or jets populating…
The dependence of the subprocess cross section for dijet production at fixed transverse momentum on the (large) rapidity separation Delta y of the dijets can be used to test for `BFKL physics', i.e. the presence of higher--order (alphas…
Minijet production and transverse energy are important not only to understand hadronic collisions, but also for the interpretation of nucleus collisions at RHIC and LHC, where it determines the ``initial conditions'' for the flow in a…
We evaluate differential cross sections for production of four jets in multi-Regge kinematics at a hadron collider. The main focus lies on azimuthal angle dependences. As in previous studies, the ratios of correlation functions of products…
We suggest the inclusive detection at the LHC of a light charged hadron and of a jet widely separated in rapidity as a new probe channel for the study of the BFKL resummation. Predictions for cross section and azimuthal correlations, shaped…
New directions for exploring QCD at future high-energy colliders are sketched. These include jets within jets, BFKL dynamics, soft and hard diffraction, searches for disoriented chiral condensate, and doing a better job on minimum bias…
We compare predictions based on small x (QCD) dynamics with recent data for deep inelastic events containing forward jets or forward pi0 mesons. We quantify the effect of imposing the (higher order) consistency condition on the BFKL…
In this review talk I consider the physics of rapidity gaps between two jets at hadron colliders, as a preliminary investigation toward understanding the production of a Higgs boson via weak boson fusion at the LHC.
