We study the energy dependence of the saturation momentum in the context of the collinearly improved Leading and Next to Leading BFKL evolution, and in the presence of saturation boundaries. We find that the logarithmic derivative of the saturation momentum is varying very slowly with Bjorken-x, and its value is in agreement with the Golec-Biernat and Wusthoff model in the relevant x region. The scaling form of the amplitude for dipole-dipole or dipole-hadron scattering in the perturbative side of the boundary is given.

    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 ...

    JIMWLK evolution gives larger incoherent diffraction cross sections than the Gaussian approximation for photon-nucleus collisions because the latter is invalid for four-gluon starting correlators.
