We calculate $e^+e^- \to Q\bar{Q}(k) + anything in a certain momentum, k, region for heavy quark-antiquark (Q\bar{Q})production. In our chosen region we find that the number of heavy quark pairs produced is determined by BFKL dynamics and…
Thermalization of quark matter and antiquark matter is studied with quark-quark-antiquark as well as quark-antiquark-antiquark elastic scatterings. Squared amplitudes of qqqbar to qqqbar and qqbarqbar to qqbarqbar at order alpha_s^4 are…
The high energy limit of scattering processes in QCD is, at least on the purely theoretical level, described by the BFKL equation. However, many phenomenological studies of BFKL fail miserably when confronted with data. In this talk we will…
We discuss how the multi-Regge factorisation of QCD amplitudes can be used in the study of multi-jet processes at colliders. We describe how the next-to-leading logarithmic (NLL) BFKL evolution can be combined with energy and momentum…
We calculate the quark-anti-quark contribution to the next-to-leading logarithmic corrections to the BFKL kernel, retaining the dependence on the momenta of the produced particles. This allows us to study the details of the NLL corrections.…
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…

In this paper, we show (i) that the NLO corrections do not change the power-like decrease of the scattering amplitude at large impact parameter ($b^2 \,>\,r^2 \exp\left( 2\bar(\alpha}_S \eta(1 + 4 \bar{\alpha}_S)\right)$, where $r$ denotes…

The elastic scattering of gqq, gqqbar and gqbarqbar and the thermalization of quark-gluon matter are studied. According to Feynman diagrams at the tree level, squared amplitudes for the elastic gqq scattering and the elastic gqqbar…
We develop a new systematic procedure for the Regge limit in perturbative QCD to arbitrary logarithmic order. The formalism relies on the IR structure and the gauge symmetry of the theory. We identify leading regions in loop momentum space…
The solution to the Balitsky-Kovchegov equation is found in the deep saturation domain. The controversy between different approaches regarding the asymptotic behaviour of the scattering amplitude is solved. It is shown that the dipole…
The study presents an analytic solution of the Balitsky-Kovchegov~(BK) equation in a particular kinematics. The solution is written in the momentum space and based on the eigenfunctions of the truncated Balitsky-Fadin-Kuraev-Lipatov~(BFKL)…
