A collinear model for small-x physics

We propose a simple model for studying small-x physics in which we take only the collinearly enhanced part of leading and subleading kernels, for all possible transverse momentum orderings. The small-x equation reduces to a second order differential equation in t=log k^2/Lambda^2 space, whose perturbative and strong-coupling features are investigated both analytically and numerically. For two-scale processes, we clarify the transition mechanism between the perturbative, non Regge regime and the strong-coupling Pomeron behavior.
