Geometric scaling in high-energy QCD at nonzero momentum transfer

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2015-06-25 v1

Abstract

We show how one can obtain geometric scaling properties from the Balitsky-Kovchegov (BK) equation. We start by explaining how, this property arises for the b-independent BK equation. We show that it is possible to extend this model to the full BK equation including momentum transfer. The saturation scale behaves like max(q,Q_T) where q is the momentum transfer and Q_T a typical scale of the target.
