Abstract:We discuss the description of the proton structure function within the dipole factorisation framework. We parametrise the forward dipole amplitude to account for saturation as predicted by the small-x QCD evolution equations. Contrarily to previous models, the saturation scale does not decrease when taking heavy quarks into account. We show that the same dipole amplitude also allows to reproduce diffractive data and exclusive vector meson production.In these proceedings [1] we shall concentrate on Deep Inelast… Show more
