abstract

We argue that the distribution functions for quarks and gluons are computable at small x for sufficiently large nuclei, perhaps larger than can be physically realized. For such nuclei, we argue that weak coupling methods may be used. We show that the computation of the distribution functions can be recast as a many body problem with a modified propagator, a coupling constant which depends on the multiplicity of particles per unit rapidity per unit area, and for non-abelian gauge theories, some extra media dependent vertices. We explicitly compute the distribution function for gluons to lowest order, and argue how they may be computed in higher order.

Emergent Local Phase-Space Scaling in Small-x Gluon Evolution

hep-ph · 2026-06-30 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0

In the fixed-coupling SO(3)-BK model, Q_s-adaptive coarse graining of the gluon Husimi distribution produces collapse of conditional momentum distributions onto k/Q_s and unit-slope growth of conditional entropy with <ln Q_s²>.

Energy-Flow Moments for Elliptic Gluon Wigner Tomography

hep-ph · 2026-06-30 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0

The normalized cos2φ moment of energy flow in DIS dijet production provides a linear projection of the elliptic gluon Wigner harmonic after kinematic subtraction within leading-power small-x factorization.

Sub-eikonal Structure of High-Energy Deep-Inelastic Scattering

hep-ph · 2026-03-24 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0

Sub-eikonal corrections to dipole structure functions F_L, F_T and the g1-related asymmetry are derived in a gauge-invariant dipole operator basis, with F_L shown to be finite and the others logarithmically divergent.

Unpolarized GPDs at small $x$ and non-zero skewness

hep-ph · 2025-12-10 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0

Unpolarized GPDs and GTMDs at small x with non-zero skewness are expressed via the dipole amplitude N and odderon O with modified rapidity Y = ln min{1/|x|, 1/|ξ|}.

Light-front Hamiltonian jet evolution in the Glasma

A light-front Hamiltonian method evolves a quark through Glasma fields to obtain transverse momentum broadening and jet quenching consistent with classical scaling in saturation momentum.

Squeezed-state radiation in shockwave scattering: QCD-Gravity double copy

hep-th · 2026-05-04 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0

The n-particle gluon radiation spectrum in shockwave scattering is a generalized Susskind-Glogower squeezed coherent state, and multi-graviton radiation follows similarly via double copy, with feasible large squeezing parameters ~ln(n_bar) leading to enhanced quantum noise in gravitational wave sp

Kinetic and canonical momentum broadening in the Glasma

hep-ph · 2026-04-09 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

Derives gauge-invariant equations of motion for kinetic and canonical momentum of particles in a classical non-Abelian background, finding that transverse fields contribute to kinetic momentum broadening even in the eikonal limit, and shows that an initial transverse Coulomb gauge reduces numerical

Replacing the rapidity argument of the dipole amplitude with ln min{1/|x|, 1/|ξ|} and refining initial conditions for non-linear evolution can eliminate two R-factors in small-x shockwave calculations.
