摘要：

We consider the production of W-boson plus dijet, W-boson plus b-jets and same sign WW via double parton scattering (DPS) in pA collisions at the LHC and evaluate the corresponding cross sections. The impact of a novel DPS contribution pertinent to pA collisions is quantified. Exploiting the experimental capability of performing measurements differential in the impact parameter in pA collisions, we discuss a method to single out this novel DPS contribution. The method allows the subtraction of the leading twist (LT) single parton scattering background and it gives access in a very clean way to double parton distribution functions in the proton. We calculate leading twist and DPS cross sections and study the dependence of the observables on the cuts in the jets phase space. In the Wjj channel the observation of DPS is possible with data already accumulated in pA runs and the situation will greatly improve for the next high luminosity runs. For the Wbb over bar final state, the statistics within the current data is too low, but there is possibility to observe DPS in this channel in future runs, albeit with much reduced sensitivity than in Wjj final state. Finally the DPS observation in the same sign WW channel will require either significant increase of integrated luminosity beyond that foreseen in next pA runs or improved methods for W reconstruction, along with its charge, in hadronic decay channels.
