Title: Possible Identification of Double Pomeron Exchange Processes
Abstract: The t distributions and rapidity gaps in high energy pp collisions are analyzed. For rapidity gaps Δ 1 ≠Δ 2 of both outgoing nucleons from the central cluster and four-momentum transfers t 1 ≠ t 2 , the Δ i t i distributions are shown to be the same. It is postulated that this may be interpreted as a limit condition for pure DPE processes. Deviations from this behavior are probably related to non-DPE processes, such as Reggeon–Pomeron and Reggeon–Reggeon exchange.
