Where are the negative shadowing corrections from ?

---the gluon recombination

The suppression to the gluon splitting comes from its inverse process

The negative screening effect in the recombination process originally occurs in the interferant cut-diagrams of the recombination amplitudes.

The antishadowing effect always coexists with

the shadowing effect in the QCD

recombination processes

Where are the positive antishadowing corrections from ?

the modified DGLAP equation combining DGLAP dynamics at small x

the shadowing and antishadowing effects in the modified DGLAP equation have different kinematic regions, the net effect depends not only on the local value of the gluon distribution at the observed point, but also on the shape of the gluon distribution when the Bjorken variable goes from x to x/2.

15

Combining with the BFKL equation, we obtain a unitarized BFKL equation

The gluon distribution becomes flatter near the saturation limit

where

The way to get

17

(a) The unintegrated gluon distribution function F(x,k2) as the function of x for different values of k2. The solid-,point- and dashed-curves are the solutions of Eq. (20) with ηFmin = 0.001, Eq. (23) and BFKL equation, respectively

18

(b) Similar to (a) but as the function of k2 for different values of x. The possible solutions of Eq. (20) should lie between the solid and point curves.

4. Discussions

• (1) Compare the BK equation, which is originally written in the transverse coordinator space for the scattering amplitude.

22

Which reduces to the BK equation (in the impact parameter-independent case) at the saturation limit

With the input distribution

where

23

(a) The normalized scattering amplitude N(r,x) as the function of x for different values of r. The solid-, point- and dashed-curves are the solutions of Eq. (32) with ηNmin = 0.01, the BK equation (33) and the linear part of Eq. (32), respectively. The possible solutions of Eq. (32) should lie between the solid and point curves.

24

(b) Similar to (a)but as the function of r for different values of x. The solid-, point- and dashed-curves are the solutions of Eq. (32) with ηNmin = 0.01, the BK equation (33) and the linear part of Eq. (32), respectively. The possible solutions of Eq. (32) should lie between the solid and point curves.

5. Conclusions (1) We presented the correction of the gluon recombination to

the BFKL equation and it leads to a new unitarized nonlinear evolution equation, which incorporates both shadowing and antishadowing effects. The new equation reduces to the BK equation near the saturation limit. The numerical solution of the equation shows that the influence of the antishadowing effect to the pre-asymptotic form of the the gluon distribution is un-negligible.

(2) the nuclear shadowing and antishadowing effects are explained by unitarized BFKL equation. The Q2- and x-variations of the nuclear parton distributions are detailed based on the level of the unintegrated gluon distribution. In particular, the asymptotical behavior of the unintegrated gluon distribution in various nuclear targets are studied. We find that the geometric scaling in the expected saturation range is violated. Our results in the nuclear targets are insensitive to the input distributions if the parameters are fixed by the data of a free proton.
