Gluon Radiation Patterns in Pomeron Exchange Events

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-09-25 v1

Abstract

Color singlet two gluon exchange provides a perturbative model for the pomeron. This mechanism is thought to explain the production of rapidity gaps in hard dijet events at the Tevatron. It is shown that in qQqQ scattering via two gluon color singlet exchange the emission of soft gluons follows closely the pattern found for tt-channel photon exchange. Gluon emission is strongly suppressed between the two quark jets. After hadronization this leads to a depressed level of hadronic activity between the jets and thus allows the formation of rapidity gaps.
