A computer study is performed to estimate the influence of the small-$k_T$ region in the BFKL evolution equation. We consider the small-x region of the deep inelastic structure function $F_2$ and show that the magnitude of the small-$k_T$…

We compare two Monte Carlo implementations of resummation schemes for the description of parton evolution at small values of Bjorken x. One of them is based on the Balitsky-Fadin-Kuraev-Lipatov (BFKL) evolution equation and generates fully…
A possible application of the evolution equation for the truncated Mellin moments to determination of the parton distributions in the nucleon is presented. We find that the reconstruction of the initial parton densities at scale $Q_0^2$…
We consider the resummation of soft-gluon effects in heavy quark to heavy quark decays, namely the processes Q1 -> Q2 + (non QCD partons), where Q1 and Q2 are two different heavy quarks. We construct a new factorization scheme for threshold…
