Unintegrated gluon distributions for forward jets at LHC

We test several BFKL-like evolution equations for unintegrated gluon distributions against forward-central dijet production at LHC. Our study is based on fitting the evolution scenarios to the LHC data using the high energy factorization approach. Thus, as a by-product, we obtain a set of LHC-motivated unintegrated gluon distributions ready to use. We utilize this application by calculating azimuthal decorrelations for forward-central dijet production and compare with existing data.

Gluon distributions from Oliveira-Martin-Ryskin combined BFKL+DGLAP evolution equations

Kwiecinski, Martin, Stasto [13] argue for inclusion of DGLAP terms into BFKL evolution of unintegrated gluon density. The equation was reformulated by Oliveira, Martin, Ryskin [6] employing the opening angle θ = k/xp as the evolution variable. It leads to a description of a θ-integrated gluon density. This paper is a numerical study of these two similar combined BFKL+DGLAP formulations. It is a demonstration of feasibility of the new approach. The different ways of subtracting the contribution common for BFKL and DGLAP proposed in [13] and [6] are compared. The numerical tests confirm that the θ variable is a more natural evolution variable for this kind of equation.

Numerical solution of the integral form of the resummed Balitsky-Kovchegov equation

The Balitsky--Kovchegov (BK) evolution equation in its resummed integral form as obtained in JHEP 1202 (2012) 117 and arXiv:1206.1223 is considered. We solve it numerically and compare to the unresummed BK equation formulated as an integral equation and to the solution obtained by the BKsolver package. Sensitivity of the solution to an introduced resolution parameter and initial conditions is investigated.

Gluon saturation scale from the KGBJS equation

The CCFM equation and its extended form with a quadratic term (KGBJS equation) are solved with fixed and running coupling constant. The solution of the KGBJS equation is compared to gluon densities resulting from the CCFM and BK equations. As the saturation scale $Q_s$ now becomes available as a function of the hard scale $p$ we observe that low values of $p$ impede its growth with $\frac 1 x$. Also, at values much larger than partons transversal momentum the saturation effects become independent on the hard scale what we call liberation of saturation scale. We also introduce the hard-scale-related saturation scale $P_s$ and investigate its energy dependence. We observe that the new scale as a function of $x$ decreases starting from the value of transversal momentum of gluon.
