I discuss the saturation regime of QCD: the weak-coupling regime that describes large parton densities inside hadrons and the resulting high-energy behavior of scattering amplitudes. I briefly review past successes in the context of deep…
We analyze the possibility of extracting a clear signal of non-linear parton saturation effects from future measurements of nuclear structure functions at the Electron-Ion Collider (EIC), in the small-x region. Our approach consists in…
We use duality to relate resonances in missing mass $M$ to the large-mass diffraction dissociation of protons. In deep inelastic lepton-hadron scattering (DIS), hadronic resonances are related by duality in $Q^2$ to the low-$x$, smooth…
In hadrons and nuclei at very small x, parton distributions saturate at a scale Q_s(x). Since the occupation number is large, and $Q_s(x)>>\Lambda_{QCD}$, classical weak coupling methods may be used to study this novel regime of non-linear…

Spin effects in high energy fragmentation processes can provide us with important information on hadronization mechanisms and spin structure of hadrons. It can in particular give new tests to the hadronization models. In this talk, we make…
In the rest frame of the nucleus, shadowing is due to hadronic fluctuations of the incoming virtual photon, which interact with the nucleons. We expand these fluctuations in a basis of eigenstates of interaction and take only the $q\bar q$…
