We consider the QCD scattering amplitudes at high energies sqrt{s} and fixed momentum transfers sqrt{-t} in the leading logarithmic approximation at a non-zero temperature T in the t-channel. It is shown that the BFKL Hamiltonian has the…
We study the transverse-momentum spectrum of quarkonium production from single light-parton fragmentation mechanism. In the case of semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering, we observe that there are two possible initiating processes,…
A phenomenological renormalization scheme for hadronic diffraction is proposed, which achieves unitarization without the need for "screening corrections". Predictions for diffractive photoproduction cross sections at HERA are presented and…
We calculate the order alpha_s^2 and order alpha_s^3 QCD contributions to colour-singlet exchange in the leading log s approximation. We implement the resulting amplitude at the hadronic level and thus construct the QCD pomeron and odderon…
In color dipole gBFKL dynamics, we describe the emerging gBFKL phenomenology of a subasymptotic energy dependence of the diffraction slope and discuss possibilities of testing the gBFKL predictions in exclusive photo- and electroproduction…
High-energy virtual photon-virtual photon scattering can be viewed as interaction of small size color dipoles from the beam and target photons, which makes $\gamma^{*}\gamma^{*}, \gamma^{*}\gamma$ scattering at high energies (LEP, LEP200 &…
We compute the full three-loop coefficient functions for the structure functions F_2 and F_L in massless perturbative QCD. The results for F_L complete the next-to-next-to-leading order description of unpolarized electromagnetic…
Factorization in gauge theories holds at the amplitude or amplitude-squared level for states of given soft or collinear momenta. When performing phase-space integrals over such states, one would generally like to avoid putting in explicit…
The perturbative QCD description of high-energy hadroproduction of two hard jets separated by a large rapidity gap void of emission (also called Mueller-Tang jets) is based on a factorization formula of BFKL type that represents exchanges…
It has been found that recent results on forward jet production from deep inelastic scattering can neither be reproduced by models which are based on leading order $\alpha_s$ QCD matrix elements and parton showers nor by next-to-leading…

Finding an efficient and compelling regularization of soft and collinear degrees of freedom at the same invariant mass scale, but separated in rapidity is a persistent problem in high-energy factorization. In the course of a calculation,…
Froissart Bound implies that the total proton-proton cross-section (or equivalently structure function) cannot rise faster than the logarithmic growth $\log^2 s \sim \log^2 (1/x)$, where \textit{s} is the square of the center of mass energy…
Multi-loop scattering amplitudes constitute a serious bottleneck in current high-energy physics computations. Obtaining new integrand level representations with smooth behaviour is crucial for solving this issue, and surpassing the…
We have recently studied the QCD pomeron loop evolution equations in zero transverse dimensions [Shoshi:2005pf]. Using the techniques developed in [Shoshi:2005pf] together with the AGK cutting rules, we present a calculation of single,…
Quark-hadron duality is an interesting and potentially very useful phenomenon, as it relates the properly averaged hadronic data to a perturbative QCD result in some kinematic regions. While duality is well established experimentally, our…
We propose to test perturbative QCD in the Regge limit by means of diffractive photon scattering $\gamma p \to \gamma X$ at large $t$ and very high energies $W^2\gg |t|\gg \Lambda^2_{QCD}$. The helicity amplitudes of this process were…
The parton branching process is known to be modified in the presence of a medium. Colour decoherence processes are known to determine the process of energy loss when the density of the medium is large enough to break the correlations…
