We study jet physics in the high energy regime of QCD. Based on the NLO BFKL equation, we construct a vertex for the production of a jet at central rapidity in k_T-factorization. A jet algorithm is introduced, and we take special care of…
I discuss radiative corrections to the BFKL equation for high energy cross sections in perturbative QCD. Due to the gluon Reggeization in the next-to-leading $\ln s$ approximation, the form of the BFKL equation remains unchanged and the…
The dependence of the subprocess cross section for dijet production at fixed transverse momentum on the (large) rapidity separation Delta y of the dijets can be used to test for `BFKL physics', i.e. the presence of higher--order (alphas…
We study the effect of a veto on additional jets in the rapidity region between a pair of high transverse momentum jets at the LHC. We aim to sum the most important logarithms in the ratio of the jet transverse momentum to the veto scale…
The production of a pair of jets with large rapidity separation in hadron-hadron collisions, and of forward jets in deep inelastic scattering, can in principle be used to test the predictions of the BFKL equation. However in practice…
We outline a general method for obtaining the solution to the ($t=0$) BFKL equation in the presence of transverse momentum cutoffs. A lower cutoff allows one to avoid integration over nonperturbative momenta and an upper one is needed from…
We study effects related to violation of energy-momentum conservation inherent to the BFKL approach, in the particular case of Mueller-Navelet jets production. We argue, based on the comparison of the lowest order non trivial corrections…
The amplitude for the forward electroproduction of two light vector mesons can be written completely within perturbative QCD in the Regge limit with next-to-leading accuracy, thus providing the first example of a physical application of the…
We study ratios of azimuthal-angle distributions in Mueller-Navelet jets after imposing a rapidity veto constraint: the minijet radiation activity is restricted to only allow final-state partons separated at least a distance in rapidity…
The production of jet pairs at large rapidity difference at hadron colliders is potentially sensitive to BFKL physics. We present the results of a BFKL Monte Carlo calculation of dijets at the Tevatron. The Monte Carlo incorporates…
We give an overview of the calculation of the forward jet vertex associated to a rapidity gap (coupling of a hard pomeron to a jet) in the Balitsky-Fadin-Kuraev-Lipatov (BFKL) formalism at next-to-leading order (NLO). This result allows,…
Many experimental analyses separate events into exclusive jet bins, using a jet algorithm to cluster the final state and then veto on jets. Jet clustering induces logarithmic dependence on the jet radius R in the cross section for exclusive…
The generalization of the BFKL equation for the case of non-forward scattering is considered. The kernel of the generalized equation in the next-to-leading approximation is expressed in terms of the gluon Regge trajectory and the effective…
We study the associated jet multiplicity arising from t-channel BFKL gluon evolution in forward dijet production at hadron colliders. Previous results have shown that the effect of conserving overall energy and momentum is to introduce a…
A study of the production of Mueller-Navelet jets at 13 TeV LHC is presented, including BFKL resummation effects and investigating three different variants of the BLM scale optimization method. It is shown how the cross section and the…
In this contribution we describe in some detail different aspects of the construction of BFKL cross sections. We focus on several effects which are relevant at next-to-leading order. In particular, we describe QCD coherence in DIS final…
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…
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…
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…
We compute the virtual next-to-leading corrections to the impact factors or off-shell coefficient functions in the high-energy limit. When combined with the known real corrections, these results will provide the complete NLO corrections to…
