Is BFKL ruled out by the Tevatron gaps between jets data ?
B. E. Cox, J. R. Forshaw, L. Lonnblad
Abstract
We have performed a detailed phenomenological investigation of the hard colour singlet exchange process observed at the Tevatron in events that have a large rapidity gap between outgoing jets. We include the effects of multiple interactions to obtain a prediction for the gap survival factor. Comparing the data on the fraction of gap events with the prediction from BFKL pomeron exchange we find agreement provided that a constant value of alphas is used in the BFKL calculation. Moreover, the value of alphas is in line with that extracted from measurements made at HERA.
