Description: Beyond the Binary explores the intersection of gender with cross-cultural identity in composer Reena Esmail's professional life and choral music.

My choices were limited to a set number of ima… more

t-Channel Unitarity Construction of Small-x Kernels

Description: In the leading-log approximation, the small-x behavior of parton distributions in QCD is derived from the BFKL evolution equation. The authors describe the ion as a reggeon Bethe-Salpeter equation and discuss the use of reggeon diagrams to obtain 2-2 and 2-4 reggeon interactions at O(g{sup 4}). They then outline the dispersion theory basis of multiparticle j-plane analysis and describe how a gauge theory can be studied by combining Ward identity constraints with the group structure of reggeon i… more
