Abstract
The JIMWLK framework offers a powerful tool to calculate the energy dependence of QCD observables at high energies. Despite a growing number of observables considered for phenomenological analysis, few features of JIMWLK evolution beyond its evolution speed are yet well constrained by experiment. We argue that meson production cross-sections have the potential to provide qualitatively new insights and allow to address issues both beyond the large-Nc limit and at higher twist. These cross-sections generically contain four point functions whose evolution is shown to follow from the JIMWLK framework. The Gaussian truncation is used to provide an efficient and practical means of calculating the evolution of four point correlators beyond the large-Nc limit.
