The bootstrap for impact factors and the gluon wave function

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-10-31 v1

Abstract

Using the results recently obtained for the non-forward quark and gluon impact factors, it is shown that their form in the gluon colour channel is consistent with the ``third bootstrap condition'', namely, that they should be proportional to the gluon wave function. The gluon wave function found from this assumption is used to write the full bootstrap condition for the gluonic potential in the next-to-leading order.
