Abstract

In this work we study the possibility of describing inclusive distributions by means of a leading Mueller singularity which is not a factorized pole. According to a «crossed-channel» viewpoint, we first examine a sort of a minimal violation of factorization, namely that the same singularity dominates multiple Mueller exchanges. We study its consistency in inclusive sum rules, paying particular attention to azimuthal correlations and discuss phenomenological consequences. Finally we show with explicit examples that this possibility is not verified in models for exclusive production amplitudes, based on direct-channel considerations.
