It has been proposed that at small Bjorken $x$, or equivalently at high energy, hadrons represent maximally entangled states of quarks and gluons. This conjecture is in accord with experimental data from the electron-proton collider HERA at…
We address a long standing problem concerning the scale behaviour of parton densities in the low $x$, low $Q^2$ domain. We emphasize the important role of absorptive corrections at low $x$ and use knowledge of diffractive deep inelastic…
Among the dipole models of deep inelastic scattering at small values of the Bjorken variable $x$, one has been recently proposed which relates the virtual photon-proton cross section to the dipole-proton forward scattering amplitude in…
This talk is a rather sceptical review of our knowledge and understanding of deep inelastic scattering at low x (high energy). We show that the well known success of the DGLAP evolution equations in describing of experimental HERA data…
The analysis of the grey tracks produced in Deep Inelastic Scattering (DIS) off nuclei provides important information on the space-time development of hadronization in nuclear medium. This method is complementary to the measurement of…
Color quadrupoles have been found to be important in the proper description of observables sensitive to the small-x regime in nuclei as well as in the operator definition of the Weizs\"acker-Williams gluon distribution. In this paper, we…
In recent papers, we have established the existence of gauge-invariant decomposition of nucleon spin, each term of which can be related to known high-energy deep-inelastic-scattering observables. A subtlety remains, however, for the…
We give a simple quantum mechanical formulation of the eikonal propagation approximation, which has been heavily used in recent years in problems involving hadronic interactions at high energy. This provides a unified framework for several…
The nonlinear evolution equation for the scattering amplitude of colour dipole off the heavy nucleus is solved in the double logarithmic approximation. It is found that if the initial parton density in a nucleus is smaller then some…
We calculate the one-loop corrections to single inclusive hadron production in Deep Inelastic Scattering (DIS) at small $x$ in the forward rapidity region using the Color Glass Condensate formalism. We show that the divergent parts of the…
In the present article, two analytical solutions based on the Laplace transforms method for the linear and non-linear gluon distribution functions have been presented at low values of $x$. These linear and non-linear methods are presented…
Using non-linear evolution equations of QCD, we compute the von Neumann entropy of the system of partons resolved by deep inelastic scattering at a given Bjorken $x$ and momentum transfer $q^2 = - Q^2$. We interpret the result as the…
We provide an interpretation of the structure functions of a thermal medium such as the quark-gluon plasma in terms of the scattering of an incoming electron on the medium via the exchange of a spacelike photon. We then focus on the…
The cross section for deep inelastic lepton-proton scattering (DIS) $\ell p \to \ell' X$ includes a diffractive deep inelastic (DDIS) contribution $\ell p \to \ell' p' X$, in which the proton remains intact with a large longitudinal…
The Pomeron dynamics is investigated via deep inelastic scattering (DIS) at small x in the framework of holographic quantum chromodynamics. The small x DIS process is assumed to be described by the graviton exchange between external vector…
When probed at very high energies or small Bjorken x_bj, QCD degrees of freedom manifest themselves as a medium of dense gluon matter called the Color Glass Condensate. Its key property is the presence of a density induced correlation…
We investigate the behavior of the Gibbs-Shannon entropy of the stationary nonequilibrium measure describing a one-dimensional lattice gas, of L sites, with symmetric exclusion dynamics and in contact with particle reservoirs at different…
