NLO forward jet vertex
Abstract
We calculate in the BFKL approach the jet vertex relevant for the production of Mueller-Navelet jets in proton-proton collisions. We consider both cases of incoming quark and gluon and show explicitly that all infrared divergences cancel when renormalized parton densities are considered. Finally we compare our expression for the vertex with a previous calculation [1].
