On the projectile-target duality of the color glass condensate in the dipole picture

摘要

Recently Kovner and Lublinsky proposed a set of equations which can be viewed as dual to JIMWLK evolution. We show that these dual equations have a natural dipole-like structure, as conjectured by Kovner and Lublinsky. In the high energy large N-c limit these evolution equations reduce to equations previously derived in the dipole model. We also show that the dual evolution kernel is scheme dependent, although its action on the weight functional describing a high energy state gives a unique result. (c) 2005 Elsevier B.V.
