In the high-energy limit, soft gluons can be approximately described by quasiclassical gluon fields. It is well known that the gluon field is a pure gauge field on the transverse plane at eikonal order. We derived the complete next-to-eikonal order solutions of the classical Yang-Mills equations for soft gluons in the dense nuclear regime. Utilizing these solutions, it is shown that Low's soft theorem at small x can be obtained by considering off-diagonal matrix elements of quasiclassical chromoelectric field between single-gluon states in the dilute regime. We further propose on extending Low's soft theorem at small x to incorporate the effects of gluon saturation in the dense regime.
在高能极限下,软胶子可以用准经典胶子场近似描述。众所周知,在程函阶次下,胶子场在横向平面上是一个纯规范场。我们推导了致密核环境中软胶子的经典杨-米尔斯方程的完整次程函阶次解。利用这些解表明,在小x时,洛氏软定理可以通过考虑稀薄区域中单胶子态之间准经典色电场的非对角矩阵元得到。我们进一步提议将小x时的洛氏软定理扩展到包含致密区域中胶子饱和效应的情况。
