Unitarization of the BFKL Pomeron on a Nucleus
We analyze the evolution equation describing all multiple hard pomeron
exchanges in a hadronic or nuclear structure functions that was proposed
earlier. We construct a perturbation series providing us with an exact solution
to the equation outside of the saturation region. The series demonstrates how
at moderately high energies the corrections to the single BFKL pomeron exchange
contribution which are due to the multiple pomeron exchanges start unitarizing
total deep inelastic scattering cross section. We show that as energy increases
the scattering cross section of the quark-antiquark pair of a fixed transverse
separation on a hadron or nucleus given by the solution of our equation inside
of the saturation region unitarizes and becomes independent of energy. The
corresponding F_2 structure function also unitarizes and becomes linearly
proportional to ln s. We also discuss possible applications of the developed
technique to diffraction.Comment: REVTeX, 20 pages, 6 figure
