We analyze electroproduction of light vector mesons at small Bjorken-x in an approach that includes the gluonic generalized parton distributions and a partonic subprocess, gamma g --> (q q-bar) g, q q-bar --> V. The subprocess is calculated…

The production in hadron-hadron collisions of jet pairs with large rapidity separation and comparable modest transverse momentum is, in principle, described by the perturbative QCD BFKL equation. The measurement of such jet pairs appears…

Virtual photon scattering in $e^+e^-$ collisions can result in events with the electron-positron pair at large rapidity separation with hadronic activity in between. The BFKL equation resums large logarithms that dominate the cross section…

Multi-loop scattering amplitudes are difficult to evaluate due to singularities of the integrals involved, especially with increasing number of loops, external legs, and mass scales. For the first time for hadronic collisions at two loops,…
