Abstract

We derive a modified form of the BFKL equation which enables the structure of the gluon emissions to be studied in small x deep inelastic scattering. The equation incorporates the resummation of the virtual and unresolved real gluon emissions. We solve the equation to calculate the number of small x deep-inelastic events containing 0,1,2 ...resolved gluon jets, that is jets with transverse momenta qT > μ. We study the jet decomposition for different choices of the jet resolution parameter μ.
