Abstract:The influence of 4 types of running coupling prescriptions on the evolution of dipole amplitude was studied in the framework of color glass condensate. The photon-proton scattering data at HERA were fitted by using the numerical amplitude resulting from collinearly-improved Balitsky-Kovchegov equation. The fitting results showed that the Balitsky prescription gives a relatively good description of the data than others with χ2/d.o.f=1.171 and C2=0.326, which indicated that the Balitsky prescription would be a priority prescription among them. Moreover, the leading order and collinearly-improved scattering amplitudes were used to perform a comparison study with the same group data in order to find the importance of the running coupling effect. The outcomes suggested that the leading order amplitude wasn't able to present a consistent description of the data by only adjusting the free parameters in the dipole model, which implied that the running coupling correction plays a significant role in suppression of the dipole evolution.
