We discuss, within the context of first order perturbation theory, the correction to the NLO BFKL wavefuncyion for scattering processes with non-zero momentum transfer, arising from the fact that in NLO the kernel is not covariant under…
A phase-space representation of nuclear interactions, which depends on the distance $\vec{r}$ and relative momentum $\vec{p}$ of the nucleons, is presented. A method is developed that permits to extract the interaction $V(\vec{r},\vec{p})$…
The extension of the factorization theorems of perturbative QCD to power corrections associated with re-scattering in nuclear collisions is reviewed. The importance of hadron-nucleus collisions is discussed.
Starting from the same input as the standard BFKL Pomeron, we directly calculate the ``hard'' Pomeron as a gluonic ladder by using Monte Carlo methods. We reproduce the characteristic features of the the BFKL Pomeron and are now also able…

We derive an evolution equation for the generating functional which accounts for processes for both gluon emission and recombination. In terms of color dipoles, the kernel of this equation describes evolution as a classical branching…
We show that a resummation model for the evolution kernel at small x creates a bridge between the weak and strong couplings. The resummation model embodies DGLAP and BFKL anomalous dimensions at leading logarithmic orders, as well as a…

The collision smearing of the nucleon momenta about their initial values during relativistic nucleus-nucleus collisions is investigated. To a certain degree, our model belongs to the transport type, and we investigate the evolution of the…
We have constructed a perturbation theory to treat interactions that can include the Coulomb interaction, describing a physical problem that is often encountered in nuclear physics. The Coulomb part is not treated perturbatively; the exact…
We present a formalism to solve the Bethe-Goldstone scattering equation without the use of partial wave expansion which is alternative to the one we developed in a previous work. The present approach is more suitable for the calculation of…
In this paper we consider the influence of non-perturbative corrections on the large $ b $ (impact parameter) behavior of the BFKL amplitude. This is done in the framework of a model where such ``soft'' corrections are taken into account in…
We calculate in the BFKL approach the jet vertex relevant for the production of Mueller-Navelet jets in proton-proton collisions. We consider both cases of incoming quark and gluon and show explicitly that all infrared divergences cancel…
Equation for the sum of BFKL pomeron fan diagrams is rederived by direct summation and solved numerically for rapidities $y\leq 50$. At high rapidities y>20 the resulting cross-sections for the scattering of a longitudinally polarized…
Dispersive corrections to the total cross section for high-energy scattering from a heavy nucleus are calculated using a matrix model, based on the triple-Pomeron behavior of diffractive scattering from a single nucleon, for the cross…
We argue that measurements of forward neutrons from nuclear breakup in inclusive high energy photon-nucleus ($\gamma A$) scattering provide a novel way to study small-$x$ dynamics of QCD in heavy-ion ultraperipheral collisions (UPCs). Using…

High-energy evolution equations, such as the BFKL, BK or JIMWLK equations, aim at resumming the high-energy (next-to-)leading logarithms appearing in QCD perturbative series. However, the standard derivations of those equations are…
