We investigate the rapidity and transverse momentum distributions of the prompt photon production at the CERN LHC energies considering the current perturbative QCD approaches for this scattering process. Namely, we compare the predictions from the usual NLO pQCD calculations to the the color dipole formalism, using distinct dipole cross sections. Special attention is paid to parton saturation models at high energies, which are expected to be important at the forward rapidities in pp collisions ( √ s = 14 TeV) at the LHC. 1 Introduction There are recent experiments collecting prompt photon data, as the PHENIX collaboration at√ s = 200 GeV at RHIC (collecting data both for the inclusive [1] and the isolated case [2]) and the D? collaboration [3] (√s = 1.96 GeV) in the Tevatron (measuring isolated prompt photons whose transverse momenta pT range from 23 to about 300 GeV). A photon is said to be prompt if it does not originate from the decay of a hadron, such as a π0 or η, itself produced with large transverse momentum. From theoretical point of view, the cross sections for producing such isolated photons have been proven to still fulfill the factorisation property, and are finite to all orders in perturbation theory. The study of prompt photons carrying large values of transverse momentum has long history and it is related to deep-inelastic-lepton scattering (DIS), Drell- Yan process production and jet production as an important probe of short-distance ha
