Reaching higher energies of electron-ion collisions with facilities like EIC is expected to provide a probe of a kinematic region where the parton densities should start to exhibit signs of saturation. This phenomenon is theoretically…

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…

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…

Nonlinear modifications of quantum mechanics generically lead to nonlocal effects which violate relativistic causality. We study these effects using the functional Schrodinger equation for quantum fields and identify a type of nonlocality…
