This code provides a library that can be used to evaluate dipole amplitude computed using light cone perturbation theory, as a function of dipole size r (unit: GeV^(-1)), impact parameter b (unit: GeV^(-1)), and the angle between r and b.
Note that the calculation is only valid in the perturbative small-r and small-b region. Consequently results at non-perturbatively large r and b are not included in the grids.

The code can be built using cmake (needs GSL)
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make
This generates a static library build/dipole/liblcptdipole.a which can be linked to an another C++ project. The necessary datafiles can be found from the data directory. The filename shows the corresponding Bjorken-x, strong coupling constant as and infrared regulator m (in GeV).
See src/example.cpp as an example on how to use the library. The attached dipole_amplitude.ipynb Jupyter notebook can also be used to study the dipole amplitudes.
