Geometric Scaling from GLAP evolution
arXiv:0802.1878 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.101.022001
Abstract
We show that the geometric scaling of the total virtual photon-proton cross section data can be explained using standard linear GLAP perturbative evolution with generic boundary conditions in a wide kinematic region. This allows us to single out the region where geometric scaling may provide evidence for parton saturation.
