Combining $Q_T$ and small-$x$ resummations

Abstract

We analyze transverse momentum (QTQ_T) resummation of a colorless final state, e.g. Higgs production in gluon fusion or the production of a lepton pair via the Drell-Yan mechanism, in the limit where the invariant mass of the final state is much less then the center-of-mass energy, i.e. Q2sQ^2\ll s. We show how the traditional resummation of logarithms of QT/QQ_T/Q can be supplemented with the resummation of the leading logarithmic contributions at small x=Q2/sx=Q^2/s and we compute the necessary ingredients to perform such joint resummation.
