    Description
    The Color Glass Condensate is a state of high density gluonic matter which controls the high energy limit of hadron interactions. I review recent developments in the renormalization group description of this matter. This leads to an effective theory which predicts gluon saturation at sufficiently high energy, or small Bjorken's x . The gluon density in the hadron wave function cannot exceed 1/as.
