Abstract
The reaction $\mathrm{pp}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\mathrm{pp}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{+}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{\ensuremath{-}}$ at 205 GeV/c is analyzed in terms of the rapidities of the secondary particles to measure the contribution of the double-Pomeron exchange process. Using a sample of 191 events, we estimate the maximum possible contribution for this process to be 44 \ensuremath{\mu}b for the region of $\ensuremath{\pi}p$ effective mass greater than 2.0 GeV in a total cross section of 680 \ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{} 140 \ensuremath{\mu}b.
