Multiple parton collisions will represent a rather common feature in pp collisions at the LHC, where regimes with very large momentum transfer may be studied and events rare in lower energy accelerators might occur with a significant rate. A reason of interest in large pt regimes is that, differently from low pt, evolution will induce correlations in x in the multiparton structure functions. We have estimated the cross section of multiple production of W bosons with equal sign, where the correlations in x induced by evolution are particularly relevant, and the cross section of View the MathML source production, where the effects of evolution are much smaller.
