Sudakov effects and the dipole amplitude
In this study we incorporate the Sudakov form factor into the dipole factorization formula, where the hard scale of the former is provided by the photon virtuality Q2. We obtain a general formula which we then apply to the well-known GBW and BGK saturation models. Parameters of the above Sudakov-imp...

Summary: | In this study we incorporate the Sudakov form factor into the dipole factorization formula, where the hard scale of the former is provided by the photon virtuality Q2. We obtain a general formula which we then apply to the well-known GBW and BGK saturation models. Parameters of the above Sudakov-improved models are successfully fitted to the F2 data from HERA. We observe, in particular, that inclusion of the Sudakov factor on top of the GBW model improves description of data at large Q2. |
