Abstract
The equation for the sum of BFKL pomeron fan diagrams
is rederived by a direct summation and
solved
numerically for rapidities .
At high rapidities, y>20,
the resulting cross-sections for the scattering of a longitudinally
polarized
pair on
the nucleus cease to depend on its transverse dimension and tend
to a
constant limit of
0.1768 RA2, which corresponds to scattering
of
a color dipole on a black disk.
Thus the
unitarity is restored and the
singularity in the j plane is reduced to a simple pole at j=1.
The nuclear
structure function at small x behaves as
.
The gluon density found has a
soliton-like form in the
space: its form is close to
Gaussian,
independent
of rapidity, the center
moving towards higher
with a nearly constant velocity
as
the rapidity increases.
