Descripción
We investigate LHC production cross-sections, using NLO BFKL resummation and kT-factorization. As a particular process we consider the completely differential production of heavy flavors. Unintegrated gluon densities are constructed as a convolution of BFKL Green's function and non-perturbative proton impact factor for which we study different models. The whole setup is presented in kT space, which allows to implement our result directly into the NLO BFKL Monte Carlo event generator. We further explore the possible use of the high energy QCD effective action for the determination of (NLO) impact factors and production vertices. In particular we present a regularization mechanism and a matching procedure which can be used for such calculations.
