Description
We extend the search for traveling-wave asymptotic solutions of the non-linear Balitsky-Kovchegov (BK) saturation equation to non-forward dipole-target amplitudes. Making use of conformal invariant properties of the Balitsky-Fadin-Kuraev-Lipatov (BFKL) kernel, we exhibit traveling-wave solutions in momentum space in the region where the momentum transfer q is smaller than the characteristic scale Q of the projectile. We prove geometric scaling in the variable Q/(q Omega_s(Y)) where Omega_s(Y) has the same energy dependence as in the forward analysis.
