Virtual photon impact factors with exact gluon kinematic
Abstract
An explicit analytic formula for the transverse and longitudinal impact factors ST,L(N,γ) of the photon using kT factorization with exact gluon kinematics is given. Applications to the QCD dipole model and the extraction of the unintegrated gluon structure function from data are proposed.
