Description
A central objective of the SURGE Collaboration is to investigate dense nuclear matter in the small-x kinematic region. The dipole model within the Color Glass Condensate (CGC) effective field theory provides a powerful framework for describing these phenomena. We are developing an efficient computational framework to evaluate and fit small-x data within a global analysis setting. Ongoing studies also explore the use of machine-learning models to enable rapid evaluation of BK and BFKL evolutions. This initial framework can be validated against established HERA data in preparation for future EIC measurements. The dipole model provides a valuable complement to the collinear parton model. Comparative studies can help elucidate small-x dynamics, including higher-twist contributions, parton recombination, resummation, and other collective phenomena.
