We report on two-particle azimuthal angle correlations between charged hadrons at forward / backward rapidity and charged hadrons at mid-rapidity in deuteron-gold (d + Au) and proton-proton (p + p) collisions at {radical}(s{sub NN}) = 200 GeV. Jet structures are observed in the correlations which we quantify in terms of the conditional yield and angular width of away-side partners. We find no evidence within our statistical and systematic errors for suppression of the conditional yield (often termed mono-jets) between forward rapidity and mid-rapidity hadrons in central d + Au reactions, where the hard processes are sensitive to low-x partons in the Au nucleus.
