## TL;DR

This paper calculates the cross section for same-sign W boson pair production via double parton scattering at the LHC using a Light-Front quark model, highlighting the potential to observe two-parton correlations.

## Contribution

It introduces a novel calculation method for double parton scattering cross sections that directly incorporates two-parton correlations without relying on external parameters.

## Key findings

- Results align with previous estimates using effective cross section.
- Demonstrates the feasibility of observing two-parton correlations at the LHC.
- Provides a new approach to study parton correlations in proton collisions.

## Abstract

Same-sign $W$ boson pairs production is a promising channel to look for signatures of double parton interactions at the LHC. The corresponding cross section has been calculated by using double parton distribution functions, encoding two parton correlations, evaluated in a Light-Front quark model. The obtained result is in line with previous estimates which make use of an external parameter, the so called effective cross section, not necessary in our approach. The possibility to observe for the first time two-parton correlations, in the next LHC runs, has been established.
