  The inclusive hadroproduction of two heavy quarks, featuring a large
separation in rapidity, is proposed as a novel probe channel of the
Balitsky-Fadin-Kuraev-Lipatov (BFKL) approach. In a theoretical setup which
includes full resummation of leading logarithms in the center-of-mass energy
and partial resummation of the next-to-leading ones, predictions for the cross
section and azimuthal coefficients are presented for kinematic configurations
typical of current and possible future experimental analyses at the LHC.
