Pomeron fan diagrams with an infrared cutoff and running coupling

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2015-06-25 v1

Abstract

By direct numerical calculations the influence of a physically relevant infrared cutoff and running coupling on the gluon density and structure function of a large nucleus is studied in the perturbative QCD approach. It is found that the infrared cutoff changes the solutions very little. Running of the coupling produces a bigger change, considerably lowering both the saturation momentum and values of the structure functions.
