Abstract
We consider evolution of observables which depend on a small but fixed value of longitudinal momentum fraction , to high rapidity, such that . We show that this evolution is not given by the JIMWLK (or BK) equation. We derive the evolution Hamiltonian - which generates this evolution in the cases of dilute and dense projectile wave function. The two limits yield identical results for . We show that the resulting evolution for the gluon TMD is identical to the (double logarithmic) perturbative Collins-Soper-Sterman evolution equation in the longitudinal resolution parameter at a fixed and very large transverse resolution.
