The radiation pattern of soft gluons in hard scattering events is sens
itive to the underlying color structure. Two examples are discussed: t
he production of rapidity gaps in dijet events at the Tevatron and hea
vy Higgs production via weak boson fusion at the LHC. A minijet veto f
or weak boson scattering at the LHC makes use of the different angular
distributions and momentum scales of gluon emission in signal and bac
kground processes. It is a promising Higgs search tool.
