Title: Light quarks and small X physics

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/10141975· OSTI ID:10141975

The significance of the low k{perpendicular} part of the Lipatov equation for the QCD soft Pomeron is discussed. It is then argued that light quarks are essential for the emergence of confinement and a Pomeron with the right physical properties. The implications for small {times} parton distributions are considered.
