Small x, Saturation and the High Energy Limit of QCD
Edmond Iancu
Abstract
The high energy limit of QCD is controlled by the small-x part of a hadron wavefunction. We argue that this part is universal to all hadrons and is composed of a new form of matter: a Colored Glass Condensate. This matter is weakly interacting at very small x, but is non-perturbative because of the highly occupied boson states which compose the condensate. Such a matter might be studied in high energy lepton-hadron or hadron-hadron interactions.
