Quantum Chromodynamics At High Energy

This book is dedicated to high energy quantum chromodynamics including parton saturation and the color glass condensate. It presents groundbreaking progress on the subject and describes many problems at the forefront of research. This title, first published in 2012, has been reissued as an Open Access publication on Cambridge Core.
