Small x QCD effects in DIS with a forward jet or a forward pi0

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2011-09-13 v2

Abstract

We compare predictions based on small x (QCD) dynamics with recent data for deep inelastic events containing forward jets or forward pi0 mesons. We quantify the effect of imposing the (higher order) consistency condition on the BFKL equation and study uncertainties inherent in the QCD predictions. We also estimate the cross-section for the forward production of two jets.
