Abstract:In this paper, the proton structure function F2
p(x, Q2) at small-x is investigated using an analytical solution of the Balitsky-Kovchegov (BK) equation. In the context of the color dipole description of deep inelastic scattering (DIS), the structure function F2
p(x, Q2) is computed by applying the analytical expression for the scattering amplitude N(k,Y) derived from the BK solution. At transverse momentum k and total rapidity Y, the scattering amplitude N(k,Y) repr… Show more
