Description

Standard perturbative calculations lead to pathologically large NLO corrections to low-xBj evolution equations like BFKL and BK. Using a more refined treatment of kinematics in mixed-space, relevant when gluon saturation sets on, one obtains an improved version of the BK equation, resumming to all orders the most severe of those large higher order corrections.
