Using the high-energy Operator Product Expansion of the T-product of two electromagnetic currents, we calculate the Photon Impact Factor for Deep Inelastic Scattering at small value of the Bjorken variable x B at the next-to-leading order (NLO) accuracy in αs. We provide for the first time an analytic expression in coordinate space and in Mellin space of the NLO impact factor for the forward unpolarized structure functions.

The photon impact factor for the BFKL pomeron is calculated in the next-to-leading order (NLO) approximation using the operator expansion in Wilson lines. The result is represented as a NLO kT-factorization formula for the structure functions of small-x deep inelastic scattering.

Abstract We compute the next-to-leading order impact factor for inclusive dijet production in deeply inelastic electron-nucleus scattering at small xBj. Our computation, performed in the framework of the Color Glass Condensate effective field theory, includes all real and virtual contributions in the gluon shock wave background of all-twist lightlike Wilson line correlators. We demonstrate explicitly that the rapidity evolution of these correlators, to leading logarithmic accuracy, is described by the JIMWLK Hamiltonian. When combined with the next-to-leading order JIMWLK Hamiltonian, our results for the impact factor improve the accuracy of the inclusive dijet cross-section to $$ \mathcal{O} $$ O ($$ {\alpha}_s^2 $$ α s 2 ln(xf/xBj)), where xf is a rapidity factorization scale. These results are an essential ingredient in assessing the discovery potential of inclusive dijets to uncover the physics of gluon saturation at the Electron-Ion Collider.
