Joint ECFA-NuPECC-APPEC Workshop “Synergies between the EIC and the LHC”

Precise measurements of hard scattering processes are a corner stone of the LHC physics programme. On theory side, the large energy transfer in these processes allows for higher-order perturbative computations in QCD to achieve remarkable precision. Combined these measurements and predictions are able to put stringent constraints on PDFs, coupling constants and masses. In this talk I will give...

Forward physics provides invaluable information for the study of
saturation in QCD. While the color-glass-condensate constitutes the
theoretical framework to study saturation within QCD, there is also a
consistent approach that allows for a perturbative factorization of
cross sections for forward production in terms of PDFs and parton-level
scattering, called Improved TMD factorization....

The scale dependence of parton distributions, such as PDFs and GPDs, is set by the anomalous dimensions of composite operators and can be computed perturbatively. While in principle straightforward, in practice such calculations are often complicated due to operator mixing. In this talk, we show that powerful consistency relations for the anomalous dimensions, based on conjugations, can be set...
