Effective vertex of quark production in collision of Reggeized quark and gluon

Abstract

We calculated the effective vertex of the quark production in the collision of Reggeized quark and Reggeized gluon in the next-to-leading order (NLO). The vertex in question is the missing component of the multi-Regge NLO amplitudes with the quark and gluon exchanges in $t_i$ channels. The calculation allows us to develop the bootstrap approach to the quark Reggeization proof within next-to-leading logarithmic approximation.
