In this paper, inelastic scattering theory, as described in Reference 1, is applied to multiple-elastic and -inelastic electron scattering in crystals. Under the small angle approximation, the inelastically scattered wave Ψn of energy En=E-en after exciting the nth crystal excited state can be taken as a position modification to the elastically scattered wave,(1)where Ψn0(r) is the elastic wave of wave vector kn and satisfies the elastic scattering Schrödinger equation,(2)and V = H'nn is the crystal potential; . Under the small angle and forward scattering approximations(3)

This chapter centres around the treatment of QCD emissions to all orders. After introductory remarks about the analytic properties of the radiation pattern, some of the most striking phenomenological consequences of non-trivial quantum effects, in particular, the angular ordering property of QCD, are highlighted. Next, analytic resummation techniques are considered, expanding on the treatment of transverse momentum resummation from Chapter 2, and introducing the idea of threshold resummation. BFKL resummation, which resums large logarithms emerging in the high-energy limit, is also introduced. In the second part of this chapter, the probabilistic simulation of QCD radiation through the parton shower is discussed. After a detailed introduction to different schemes and algorithms, the discussion of the combination of the parton shower with fixed-order matrix elements beyond the Born approximation is considered, with a discussion of matching with NLO calculations and the merging with multijet matrix elements.

We briefly review some selected topics in the small x physics. In particular, we discuss the progress in the problem related to the resummation at small x and the parton saturation phenomena. Finally we discuss some phenomenological applications to deep inelastic scattering, hadron and heavy ion collisions.
