Comment on "Next-to-leading order forward hadron production in the small-x regime: rapidity factorization" arXiv:1403.5221 by Kang et al

In a recent paper (arXiv:1403.5221), Kang et al.proposed the so-called “rapidity factorization” for the single inclusive forward hadron production in pA collisions. We point out that the leading small-x logarithm was mis-identified in this paper, and hence the newly added next-to-leading order correction term is unjustified and should be absent in view of the small-x factorization.
