{\narrower\smallskip High Energy onium-onium scattering is calculated as a function of impact parameter in the one and two pomeron exchange approximation. Difficulties with using the multiple scattering series to unitarize single pomeron exchange at high energy are noted. An operator formalsim which sums all numbers of pomeron exchange is given. A toy model which has a similar operator structure at high energy as QCD is presented and the S-matrix is evaluated. Estimates of the energies and impact parameters at which blackness occurs in onium-onium scattering are given. It is emphased that the problem of unitarity in high energy onium-onium scattering can be solved in a purely perturbative context, with a non-running coupling if the onium is heavy enough.\smallskip}

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

    hep-ph 2025-12 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|}.

  2. On the Two $R$-Factors in the Small-$x$ Shockwave Formalism

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    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.

  3. Entropy and mean multiplicity from dipole models in the high energy limit

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    The generalized dipole model fits entropy and mean multiplicity data from proton-proton collisions significantly better than the standard 1D Mueller dipole model.

  4. Entanglement entropy, Monte Carlo event generators, and soft gluons DIScovery

    hep-ph 2025-09 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Including soft gluons in Monte Carlo generators for DIS aligns parton distributions with inclusive PDFs and makes entropy grow with decreasing x, indicating initial-state origin of the bulk entropy.
