Abstract

The uncertainties from the infrared renormalons in the (color dipole) gluon distribution is estimated. It is shown that non-linear saturation effects at small-xx shift the first IR pole at the Borel plane from 2/β22/\beta_2 to 1/β21/\beta_2. As a consequence the estimated uncertainty is found to be O(ΛQCD2){\cal O}\left(\Lambda_{\rm QCD}^2\right) instead of O(ΛQCD4){\cal O}\left(\Lambda_{\rm QCD}^4\right).
