Saturation Effects in Deep Inelastic Scattering at low Q² and its Implications on Diffraction
read the original abstract
We present a model based on the concept of saturation for small $Q^2$ and small $x$. With only three parameters we achieve a good description of all Deep Inelastic Scattering data below $x=0.01$. This includes a consistent treatment of charm and a successful extrapolation into the photoproduction regime. The same model leads to a roughly constant ratio of diffractive and inclusive cross section.

When JIMWLK evolution really matters: the example of incoherent diffraction
JIMWLK evolution produces systematically larger incoherent diffraction cross sections than the Gaussian Approximation in photon-nucleus collisions because the latter is invalid for four-gluon-exchange correlators.
