The intercept of the BFKL pomeron from Forward Jets at HERA

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-10-31 v1

Abstract

Recently the H1 and ZEUS collaborations have presented cross sections for DIS events with a forward jet. The BFKL formalism is able to produce an excellent fit to these data. The extracted intercept of the hard pomeron suggests that when all higher order corrections are taken into account the cross section will still rise very rapidly as expected for low xx dynamics.
