Wigner, Husimi and GTMD distributions in the Color Glass Condensate

Published 19 Sep 2016 in hep-ph | (1609.05773v1)

Abstract: We study the phase space distributions of gluons inside a nucleon/nucleus in the small-$x$ regime including the gluon saturation effect. This can be done by using the relation between the gluon Wigner distribution and the dipole S-matrix at small-$x$, the latter satisfies the Balitsky-Kovchegov (BK) equation. By efficiently solving the BK equation with impact parameter dependence, we compute the Wigner, Husimi and generalized TMD (GTMD) distributions in the saturation regime. We also investigate the elliptic angular dependence of these distributions which has been recently shown to be measurable in DIS experiments.
