NLO JIMWLK evolution unabridged

Kovner, Alex, Lublinsky, Michael, Mulian, Yair

Understand

In Ref.

  • [1] we presented the JIMWLK Hamiltonian for high energy evolution of QCD amplitudes at the next-to-leading order accuracy in $\alpha_s$.
  • In the present paper we provide details of our original derivation, which was not reported in [1], and provide the Hamiltonian in the form appropriate for action on color singlet as well as color nonsinglet states.
  • The rapidity evolution of the quark dipole generated by this Hamiltonian is computed and compared with the corresponding result of Balitsky and Chirilli [2].
