Abstract

We revisited solution of a linearized form of leading order Balitsky-Kovchegov equation (linear in S-matrix for dipole-nucleus scattering). Here we adopted dipole transverse width dependent cutoff in order to regulate the dipole integral. We also have taken care of all the higher order terms (higher order in the cutoff) that have been reasonably neglected before. The solution reproduces both McLerran-Venugopalan type initial condition (Gaussian in scaling variable) and Levin-Tuchin solution (Gaussian in logarithm of scaling variable) in the appropriate limits. It also connects this two opposite limits smoothly with better accuracy for sets of rescaled rapidity when compared to numerical solutions of full leading order Balitsky-Kovchegov equation.
