High Density QCD, Saturation and Diffractive DIS
I. P. Ivanov, N. N. Nikolaev, W. Schäfer +2
We review a consistent description of the fusion and saturation of partons in the Lorentz-contracted ultrarelativistic nuclei in terms of a nuclear attenuation of color dipole stat…
Connection between Diffraction and Small-
N. N. Nikolaev
A brief review of the modern QCD theory of diffractive DIS is given.
Unifying aspects of polarization of vector mesons from hard production in DIS and at Tevatron
N. N. Nikolaev
Virtual photons have both the transverse and longitudinal polarization. In the inclusive DIS the impact of longitudinal photons, quantified by R=sigmaL/\igmaT sim 0.2, is marginal,…
Helicity Flip in Diffractive DIS
N. N. Nikolaev
I review new results on s-channel helicity nonconservation (SCHNC) in diffractive DIS. I discuss how by virtue of unitarity diffractive DIS gives rise to spin structure functions w…
Spin dependence of diffractive DIS
N. N. Nikolaev
I review the recent progress in the theory of s-channel helicity nonconservation (SCHNC) effects in diffractive DIS including the unitarity driven demise of the Burkhardt-Cottingha…
Diffraction driven steep rise of spin structure function at small x and DIS sum rules
I. P. Ivanov, N. N. Nikolaev, A. V. Pronyaev +1
We derive a unitarity relationship between the spin structure function , the LT interference diffractive structure function and the s…
