We calculate inclusive dijet production cross section in high energy hadron collisions within the BFKL resummation formalism for the QCD Pomeron. We take into account the Pomerons which are adjacent to the hadrons. With these adjacent…
We study the contribution of the truncated BFKL series to the electroproduction process showing that a reliable description is obtained taking into account two orders in perturbation theory. Using the recent F2 logarithmic slope data as a…
The initial analyses of the next-to-leading logarithmic corrections to the BFKL kernel were very discouraging. Encouraged by the success of new methods in the analysis of the BFKL equation at full NLL accuracy we demonstrate in this talk…
We summarize the work done in the ``Beyond the Standard Model'' group of the 1995-96 HERA Workshop. Of the various proposed HERA upgrades, the luminosity improvement is the most important for this physics. With an integrated luminosity of 1…
New directions for exploring QCD at future high-energy colliders are sketched. These include jets within jets, BFKL dynamics, soft and hard diffraction, searches for disoriented chiral condensate, and doing a better job on minimum bias…
A variety of possible future analyses of HERA data in the context of the HERA data preservation programme is collected, motivated, and commented. The focus is placed on possible future analyses of the existing $ep$ collider data and their…
We calculate inclusive dijet production cross section in high energy hadron collisions within the BFKL resummation formalism for the QCD Pomeron. Unlike the previous calculations with the Pomeron developing only between tagging jets, we…
Linear and non-linear QCD evolutions at high energy suffer from severe issues related to convergence, due to higher order corrections enhanced by large double and single transverse logarithms. We resum double logarithms to all orders by…
Semi-hard processes in the large COM energy limit offer us an exclusive chance to test the dynamics behind strong interactions in kinematical sectors so far unexplored. In the Regge limit, fixed-order calculations in pQCD based on collinear…
We summarize the findings of our Working Group, which discussed progress in the understanding of Chiral Dynamics in the A=2, 3, and 4 systems over the last three years. We also identify key unresolved theoretical and experimental questions…

We calculate the exclusive process gamma* gamma* ->rho rho at high energy. The Born order estimate and the leading (LLA) and next to leading order (NLLA) BFKL resummation effects show the feasibility of experimental detection in a quite…

We discuss the significance of the next-to-leading order term in the BFKL equation on the energy dependence of diffractive processes controlled by the perturbative QCD pomeron. It is shown that whereas the large negative corrections do…
The QCD dipole picture of BFKL dynamics provides an attractive theoretical approach to the study of the QCD (resummed) perturbative expansion of small-x physics and more generally to hard high-energy processes. We discuss applications to…
We discuss the high energy asymptotics in the next-to-leading (NLO) BFKL equation. We find a general solution for Green functions and consider two properties of the NLO BFKL kernel: running QCD coupling and large NLO corrections to the…
The proton structure function F2 is studied in the low x regime using BFKL evolution. The next to leading logarithmic (NLL) analysis requires the inclusion of running coupling effects which lead to off-diagonal terms in the evolution…
In this paper we continue to pursue a goal of finding the effective theory for high energy interaction in QCD based on the colour dipole approach, for which the BFKL Pomeron Calculus gives a low energy limit. The two key problems, that we…
