摘要
We discuss the high energy asymptotic in the next-to-leading (NLO) BFKL equation. We find a general solution for the Green functions and consider two properties of the NLO BFKL kernel: running QCD coupling and large NLO corrections to the conformal part of the kernel. Both these effects lead to Regge-BFKL asymptotic only in the limited range of energy (y = ln(s/qq(0)) less than or equal to (alpha(s))(-5/3)) and change the energy behaviour of the amplitude for higher values of energy. We confirm the oscillation in the total cross section found by D.A, Ross [SHEP-98-06, hep-ph/9804332] in the NLO BFKL asymptotic, which shows that the NLO BFKL has a serious pathology.
