The small-$x$ deep inelastic scattering in the saturation region is governed by the non-linear evolution of Wilson-lines operators. In the leading logarithmic approximation it is given by the BK equation for the evolution of color dipoles.…
The first phase of a heavy quark program based on twisted mass valence quarks has been presented at last years's lattice conference. The CLS $N_f=2+1$ ensembles were used for their fine lattice spacing, while twisting the masses is expected…
We calculate the three-loop master integrals of Ref. [1] [arXiv:1709.02160] in analytic form. This allows us to present the fermionic contributions to the $\Delta B=2$ Wilson coefficients of the $B$-$\bar B$ decay matrix in…

The infrared exponentiation properties of dimensionally-regularized multi-loop scattering amplitudes are typically hidden at the level of the integrand, materializing only after integral evaluation. We address this long-standing problem by…
We discuss production of charm quarks, mesons as well as nonphotonic electrons in $pp$ scattering at RHIC. The distributions in rapidity and transverse momentum of charm and bottom quarks/antiquarks are calculated in the $k_t$-factorization…

Recent data on B decays involving $\eta'$ may be explained if the singlet axial current of charmed quarks has large matrix element to $\eta'$, and instantons were shown to be able to generate this effect. We study the magnitude of charm…
We discuss deep inelastic scattering at high energies as a critical phenomenon in 2+1 space - time dimensions. In the limit of Bjorken $x \to 0$, $QCD$ SU(3) with quark fields becomes a critical theory with a diverging correlation length…
We use an s-channel picture of hard hadronic collisions to investigate the parton distribution function for quarks at small momentum fraction x, which corresponds to very high energy scattering. We study the renormalized quark distribution…
