Unitarity Corrections to the Proton Structure Functions through the Dipole Picture

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2015-06-25 v2

Abstract

We study the dipole picture for the description of the deep inelastic scattering, focusing on the structure functions which are driven directly by the gluon distribution. One performs estimates using the effective dipole cross section given by the Glauber-Mueller approach in QCD, which encodes the corrections due to the unitarity effects associated with the saturation phenomenon. We also address issues about frame invariance of the calculations when analysing the observables.
