Description
The search for gluon saturation is one of the main pillars for the scientific program of the future Electron-Ion Collider (EIC). In recent years, significant progress has been made in advancing saturation physics to a precision science as we prepare for the EIC era. We contribute to these efforts by performing the first complete next-to-leading order (NLO) computation of inclusive dijet production in deeply inelastic electron-nucleus scattering at small-x within the Color Glass Condensate (CGC).
I will highlight three aspects of our computation: the cancellation of ultra-violet divergences, the JIMWLK factorization of the rapidity logarithms, and the cancellation of infrared and collinear singularities within the small-cone approximation. Furthermore, I will discuss the applicability of our results in the back-to-back regime and the emergence of Sudakov logarithms. I will conclude by outlining further extensions of our work that are relevant for the search of gluon saturation at the EIC.
