Unitarity Corrections to the Drell-Yan Process in the Target Rest Frame

The unitarity corrections effects encoded in the Glauber-Mueller approach are taken into account to calculate the differential cross sections in the Drell-Yan process in the rest frame. A detailed study of the Drell-Yan process in terms of the $γ^{*}q$ transverse separation and the color dipole size, as well as the effective dipole cross section is performed and compared with the available small $x$ data. Estimates for the Drell-Yan cross section at RHIC energies are presented and discussed.

Aspects of the Unitarized Soft Multipomeron Approach in DIS and Diffraction

We study in detail the main features of the unitarized Regge model (CFKS), recently proposed to describe the small-$Q^2$ domain. It takes into account a two-component description with two types of unitarized contributions: one is the multiple pomeron exchange contribution, interacting with the large dipole configurations, and the other one consists of a unitarized dipole cross section, describing the interaction with the small size dipoles. We analyze the ratio between soft and hard pieces as a function of the virtuality, and also compare the resulting dipole cross section to that from the saturation model. Diffraction dissociation is also considered, showing the scaling violations in diffractive DIS and estimating the corresponding logarithmic slope.

Unitarity Corrections and Structure Functions

We have studied the color dipole picture for the description of the deep inelastic process, mainly the structure functions which are driven directly by the gluon distribution. Estimates for those functions are obtained using the effective dipole cross section given by the Glauber-Mueller approach in QCD, encoding the corrections due to the unitarity effects associated with the saturation phenomenon. Frame invariance is verified in the calculations of the observables when analysing the experimental data.

Unitarity Corrections to the Proton Structure Functions through the Dipole Picture

We study the dipole picture for the description of the deep inelastic scattering, focusing on the structure functions which are driven directly by the gluon distribution. One performs estimates using the effective dipole cross section given by the Glauber-Mueller approach in QCD, which encodes the corrections due to the unitarity effects associated with the saturation phenomenon. We also address issues about frame invariance of the calculations when analysing the observables.

The Diffractive Logarithmic Slope and the Saturation Phenomena

The logarithmic slope of the diffractive structure function is a potential observable scanning the hard and soft contributions in diffraction, allowing to disentangle the QCD dynamics. We report our calculations concerning this quantity, in particular the estimates emerging from the saturation model applied to diffraction dissociation.

Hard and Soft Contributions in Diffraction

We report our calculations on the logarithmic slope of the diffractive structure function F_2^D considering distinct approaches coming from both the pQCD and the Regge descriptions of diffractive DIS. Such a quantity is a potential observable to discriminate between pQCD and Regge domains and allows to disentangle the underlying dynamics.

The Logarithmic Slope in Diffractive DIS

The logarithmic slope of diffractive structure function is a potential observable to separate the hard and soft contributions in diffraction, allowing to disentangle the QCD dynamics. In this paper we extend our previous analyzes and calculate the diffractive logarithmic slope for three current approaches in the literature: (i) the Bartels-Wusthoff model, based on perturbative QCD, (ii) the CKMT model, based on Regge theory and (iii) the Golec Biernat - Wusthoff model which assumes that the saturation phenomena is present in the HERA kinematic region. We analyze the transition region of small to large momentum transfer and verify that future experimental results on the diffractive logarithmic slope could discriminate between these approaches.

Truncated BFKL Series in Electron-Proton Collisions

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 constraint to the adustable parameters, the inclusive structure function is described in a wide range of the small x HERA kinematical region, consistent with the unitarity bound. We also extrapolate the extimates to the THERA region.

The Hard and Soft Contributions in Diffraction: A Closer Look

Disentangle the hard and soft dynamics in diffractive DIS is one of the main open questions of the strong interactions. We propose the study of the logarithmic slope in $Q^2$ of the diffractive structure function as a potential observable to discriminate between the Regge and the QCD-based approaches. Our results indicate that a future experimental analyzes could evidentiate the leading dynamics at $ep$ diffractive processes in the HERA kinematical regime.

Truncated BFKL Series and Hadronic Collisions

A truncated BFKL series is studied and applied to hadronic processes. The proton-(anti)proton cross sections are described with good agreement with data and in a way consistent with the unitarity bound. The elastic scattering amplitude is calculated at momentum transfer $t$ different from zero, introducing two distinct ansatze for the proton impact factor. The elastic differential cross section is obtained at small $t$ approximation and compared with the data.
