Abstract
We calculate the next-to-leading order corrections to dihadron production in deep inelastic scattering (DIS) at small $x$ using the color glass condensate formalism for the case when the virtual photon is transverse polarized. Similar to the case of longitudinal photon exchange all UV and soft singularities cancel while the collinear divergences are absorbed into quark and antiquark-hadron fragmentation functions. Rapidity divergences lead to Jalilian-Marian, Iancu, McLerran, Wiegert, Leonidov, Kovner (JIMWLK) evolution of dipoles and quadrupoles which describe multiple scatterings of the quark antiquark dipole on the target proton/nucleus and contain all the QCD dynamics of the target leading to a finite final result for the dihadron production cross section.
