Geometric scaling is a novel scaling phenomenon observed in deep inelastic scattering at small x: the total virtual photon-proton cross section depends upon the two kinematical variables Q^2 and x only via their combination Q^2 R_0^2(x),…

We propose a method to assess the quality of geometrical scaling in Deep Inelastic Scattering and apply it to the combined HERA data on $\gamma^{\ast}p$ cross-section. Using two different approaches based on Bjorken $x$ binning and binning…

We illustrate geometric scaling for the photon-proton cross section with a very simple saturation model. We describe the proton structure function F2 at small x in a wide kinematical range with an elementary functional form and a small…

In this paper we show that the intuitive guess that the geometric scaling behaviour should be violated in the case of the running QCD coupling, turns out to be correct. The scattering amplitude of the dipole with the size $r$ depends on new…

At low $x \cong Q^2/W^2 << 1$, in deep inelastic scattering, the photon fluctuates into a $q \bar q$ vector state that interacts via two gluons with the proton. The energy dependence is determined by the saturation scale, in our approach…

In Pb-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}}$ = 2.76 TeV, we report on a geometrical scaling in the transverse momentum ($p_{\rm T}$) spectra of inclusive charged hadrons at 0-5$\%$, 5-10$\%$, 10-20$\%$, 20-30$\%$, 30-40$\%$, 40-50$\%$,…

Saturation and geometrical scaling (GS) of gluon distributions are a consequence of the non-linear evolution equations of QCD. We argue that in pp GS holds for the inelastic cross-section rather than for the multiplicity distributions. We…

We discuss emergence of geometrical scaling as a consequence of the nonlinear evolution equations of QCD, which generate a new dynamical scale, known as the saturation momentum: Qs. In the kinematical region where no other energy scales…
