In JHEP 11 (2022) 169, we performed the first complete computation of the back-to-back inclusive di-jet cross-section in Deeply Inelastic Scattering (DIS) at small $x_{\rm Bj}$ to next-to-leading order (NLO) in the Color Glass Condensate effective field theory (CGC EFT). We demonstrate here that for di-jets with relative transverse momentum $P_\perp$ and transverse momentum imbalance $q_\perp$, to leading power in $q_\perp/P_\perp$, the cross-section for longitudinally polarized photons can be fully factorized into the product of a perturbative impact factor and the nonperturbative Weizs\"{a}cker-Williams (WW) transverse momentum dependent (TMD) gluon distribution to NLO accuracy. The impact factor can further be expressed as the product of a universal soft factor which resums Sudakov double and single logs in $P_\perp/q_\perp$ and a coefficient function given by a remarkably compact analytic expression. We show that in the CGC EFT the WW TMD satisfies a kinematically constrained JIMWLK renormalization group evolution in rapidity. This factorization formula is valid to all orders in $Q_s/q_\perp$ for $q_\perp, Q_s \ll P_\perp$, where $Q_s$ is the semi-hard saturation scale that grows with rapidity.

  1. Sub-eikonal stress and model dependence of the small-$x$ gluon D-term

    hep-ph 2026-07 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    The gluon D-term at small x is a next-to-eikonal stress observable whose sign is not determined by the dipole or saturation profile.

  2. Matching collinear factorization with color-glass condensate for inclusive and exclusive deep inelastic scattering

    hep-ph 2026-05 accept novelty 7.0

    Collinear factorization amplitudes exactly reproduce the large-Q² expansion of CGC amplitudes for inclusive DIS, DVCS, and DVMP at the amplitude level.

  3. Sub-eikonal stress and model dependence of the small-$x$ gluon D-term

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0

    The small-x gluon D-term is a next-to-eikonal stress probe and is not fixed by the leading-eikonal dipole or saturation profile alone.
