First experimental results are presented from a search for events with a rapidity gap between jets. The D0 detector was used to examine events produced by the Fermilab Tevatron [ital p[bar p]] collider at [radical][ital s] =1.8 TeV. The fraction of events with an observed rapidity gap between the two highest transverse energy ([ital E][sub [ital T]]) jets is measured as a function of the pseudorapidity separation between the jet edges ([Delta][eta][sub [ital c]]). An upper limit at the 95% confidence level of 1.1[times]10[sup [minus]2] is obtained on the fraction of events with non particles between the jets, for events with [Delta][eta][sub [ital c]][gt]3 and jet [ital E][sub [ital T]] greater than 30 GeV.
