Scaling phenomena from non-linear evolution in high energy DIS
The numerical solutions of the non-linear evolution equation are shown to
display the ``geometric'' scaling recently discovered in the experimental data.
The phenomena hold both for proton and nucleus targets for all below
and . The
scaling is practically exact (few percent error) in the saturation region. In
addition, an approximate scaling is found in the validity domain of the linear
evolution where it holds with about 10% accuracy.
Basing on the scaling phenomena we determine the saturation scale
and study both its -dependence and the atomic number dependence for the
nuclei.Comment: 13 pages, 20 figure
Diffractive dissociation and saturation scale from non-linear evolution in high energy DIS
This paper presents the first numerical solution to the non-linear evolution
equation for diffractive dissociation processes in deep inelastic scattering.
It is shown that the solution depends on one scaling variable , where is the saturation scale for the diffraction
processes. The dependence of the saturation scale on both
and is investigated, ( is a minimal rapidity gap for
the diffraction process). The - dependence of turns out to be the
same as of the saturation scale in the total inclusive DIS cross section. In
our calculations reveals only mild dependence on . The
scaling is shown to hold for but is violated at .Comment: 13 pages, 9 figure
Towards a new global QCD analysis: low x DIS data from non-linear evolution
A new approach to global QCD analysis is developed. The main ingredients are
two QCD-based evolution equations. The first one is the Balitsky-Kovchegov
nonlinear equation, which sums higher twists while preserving unitarity. The
second equation is linear and it is responsible for the correct short distance
behavior of the theory, namely it includes the DGLAP kernel. Our approach
allows extrapolation of the parton distributions to very high energies
available at the LHC as well as very low photon virtualities, .
All existing low data on the structure function is reproduced using
one fitting parameter. The resulting .
Analyzing the parameter at
very low and well below we find . A result which agrees with the "soft pomeron" intercept without
involving soft physics.Comment: 27 pages, 11 figure
High-enegy effective action from scattering of QCD shock waves
At high energies, the relevant degrees of freedom are Wilson lines - infinite
gauge links ordered along straight lines collinear to the velocities of
colliding particles. The effective action for these Wilson lines is determined
by the scattering of QCD shock waves. I develop the symmetric expansion of the
effective action in powers of strength of one of the shock waves and calculate
the leading term of the series. The corresponding first-order effective action,
symmetric with respect to projectile and target, includes both up and down fan
diagrams and pomeron loops.Comment: 15 pages, 10 eps figure
Non-linear evolution and high energy diffractive production
The ratio of the diffractive production to the total cross section in DIS is
computed as a function of the produced mass. The analysis is based on the
solution to the non-linear evolution equation for the diffraction dissociation
in DIS.
The obtained ratios almost do not depend on the central mass energy in
agreement with the HERA experimental data. This independence is argued to be a
consequence of the scaling phenomena displayed by the cross sections.
As a weakness point a significant discrepancy between the data and the
obtained results is found in the absolute values of the ratios. Several
explanatory reasons are discussed.Comment: 8 pages, 3 figure
