Description
Measurements of azimuthal correlations in the production of forward dijets in deep inelastic scattering provide the opportunity to probe the Weizsäcker-Williams gluon transverse momentum dependent (TMD) parton distribution, and the possibility for the discovery of gluon saturation at the future Electron-Ion Collider (EIC). While the TMD factorization is expected to hold near back-to-back production, there are important kinematic (perturbative power) and genuine saturation contributions that must be resummed for more controlled phenomenological predictions.
In this talk, I will compare the results of the TMD and the improved TMD factorization framework to those in the Color Glass Condensate (CGC), and report on the expected size of kinematic and genuine saturation corrections at different kinematics accessible at the EIC [1]. I will discuss recent progress towards the computation of dijet production at the next-to-leading order in the CGC [2], and the possibility of extending the TMD-CGC correspondence to higher orders in perturbation theory.
