BFKL signatures at a linear collider

The BFKL dynamics can be successfully tested at the future high energy $e^+e^-$ linear collider. The total $\gamma^*\gamma^*$ cross-section is calculated in the Leading Log QCD dipole picture of BFKL dynamics, and compared with the one from 2-gluon exchange. The rapidity dependence of the cross-section remains a powerful tool to increase the ratio between the BFKL and the 2-gluon cross-sections and is more sensitive to BFKL effects, even in the presence of higher order corrections. Other potential signals like diffractive $J/ \Psi$ and 'forward' jet productions will also be discussed.
