Abstract:
Azimuthal angle decorrelation in inclusive dijet cross sections is studied analytically to take into account the next-to-leading corrections to the BFKL kernel while keeping the jet vertices at leading order. The spectral representation on the basis of leading order eigenfunctions is generalized to include the dependence on conformal spins. With this procedure running coupling effects and angular dependences are both included. It is shown how the angular decorrelation for jets with a wide relative separation in rapidity largely decreases at this higher order in the resummation.
