Azimuthal correlation of gluon jets created in pp, pp¯ and ee¯ collisions

Annihilation of a proton and an antiproton to a quark-antiquark pair accompanied by emission of two additional gluon jets with an intermediate state of a vector meson is considered. Strong azimuthal correlation is revealed of two gluonic jets, effectively created in the same plane. Similar phenomena occur in peripheral proton(antiproton)-proton collisions with creation of quark-antiquark and two soft gluons in the pionization region. Similar phenomena take place in a quark-antiquark (two gluons) creation process in ee¯ collisions. The possible manifestation of this phenomenon in cosmic ray physics is discussed.
