NLO jet production at central rapidities in $k_T$ factorization

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2014-11-18 v1

Abstract

In this contribution we discuss the inclusive production of jets in central regions of rapidity in the context of kTk_T-factorization at next-to-leading order (NLO). We work in the Regge limit of QCD and use the NLO BFKL results. A jet cone definition is proposed together with a phase-space separation into multi-Regge and quasi-multi-Regge kinematics. We discuss scattering of highly virtual photons, with a symmetric energy scale to separate the impact factors from the gluon Green's function, and hadron-hadron collisions, with a non-symmetric scale choice.
