Anomalous dimension of transverse momentum broadening in planar $\mathcal{N}=4$ SYM
Abstract
The typical transverse momentum (or "saturation" momentum) acquired by a hard particle propagating through a SYM plasma increases over time like , with an anomalous exponent characteristic of super-diffusion. This anomalous exponent is a function of the 't Hooft coupling . Recently, a method has been proposed to systematically compute the perturbative series of at weak coupling. This method relies on the traveling wave interpretation of the time evolution of and on the dominance of soft-collinear radiative corrections at large times. In this paper, we compute up to using the double logarithmic behaviour of the BFKL equation in planar SYM at three loops. This calculation allows us to discuss the transition towards the strong coupling regime where AdS/CFT calculations predict .
