Introduction - Motivation
Multiple hard parton (q,g) collisions are common in high energy pp collisions
For example:
• 4 jets in 63 AGeV events @ CERN ISR (AFS)
• 4 jets and 3 jets + in 1.8 TeV events @ Tevatron (CDF, D0)
? @ LHC
Larger probability found than expected for uncorrelated hard subcollisions

Literature
Connection between correlations in momentum and impact parameter (b) space have not yet been studied

Correlation studies
Our solution: detailed dynamical model for parton evolution (Lund Dipole Cascade Model)
Earlier Sjöstrand and van Zilj assumed that the dependence of double-parton density on kinematic variables (x, Q2) and on the separation in impact parameter space (b) factorizes.
Implemented in PYTHYA and HERWIG event generators
Problem: how to extrapolate to higher energies (LHC)

Correlation studies
Lund Dipole Cascade Model
Based on BFKL and Müller’s dipole cascade model
Correlation sources in the model: 1) from fluctuations (event by event) 2) “hot spots” makes the profile narrower

Double Parton Scattering & Double Parton Distributions - Experimental results
Measure of correlation is defined by eff according to
D(A,B) is the cross-section of the two hard processes
SA and S
B are the single inclusive cross-sections
If hard interactions were uncorrelated, eff would be equal to the total non-diffractive corss-section

Summary
In our analysis we have found that the two-parton correlation function F(b) in a non-trivial way on all kinematic variables x1,x2,Q2
1,Q22
Lund Dipole Cascade Model offers unique possibility to study gluon evolution inside hadrons at small x
Our results show a non-flat energy dependence within errors compatible with experiments in their energy range.
