We show how one can obtain geometric scaling properties from the Balitsky-Kovchegov (BK) equation. We start by explaining how, this property arises for the b-independent BK equation. We show that it is possible to extend this model to the…

In order to study such effects like parton saturation in final states at the LHC one of the approaches is to combine physics of the BK and the CCFM evolution equations. We report on recently obtained resummed form of the BK equation and…
A numerical solution is presented for the non-linear evolution equation that governs the dynamics of high parton density QCD. It is shown that thesolution falls off as $e^{-b/R}$ at large values of the impact parameter $b$. The power-like…
