Summing large Pomeron loops in the saturation region: dipole-nucleus collision beyond nonlinear equations

Abstract

In this paper we found the dipole-nucleus scattering amplitude at high energies by summing large Pomeron loops. It turns out that the energy dependence of this amplitude is the same as for dipole-dipole scattering. It means that the Balitsky-Kovchegov (BK) equation, which has been derived to describe this scattering, can be trusted only in the limited range of energies: z2κCA1/6z \,\leq\, \sqrt{2\,\kappa\,C}A^{1/6}
