UNIVERSAL PROPERTIES OF ANGULAR CORRELATIONS IN QCD JETS

Predictions for angular correlations between an arbitrary number of partons are derived in the high energy limit. The quantities considered depend on angles and primary energy through a single variable $ϵ$ which implies certain scaling properties and relations between quite different observables. These asymptotic predictions derived in the double log approximation of QCD are checked against Monte Carlo calculations at the parton and hadron level.
