abstract

We compute the production of quark-antiquark pairs in high energy collisions between a small and a large projectile, as in proton-nucleus collisions, in the framework of the Color Glass Condensate. We derive a general expression for quark pair-production, which is not k_t-factorizable. However, k_t-factorization is recovered in the limit of large mass pairs or large quark--anti-quark momenta. Our results are amenable to a simple interpretation and suggest how multi-parton correlations at small x can be quantified in high-energy proton/deuteron-nucleus collisions.

(3+1)D event-by-event pre-equilibrium dynamics in heavy-ion collisions

hep-ph · 2025-12-08 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0

Extension of KoMPoST to (3+1)D non-boost-invariant pre-equilibrium dynamics via kinetic theory response functions, chained into a full McDIPPER+KoMPoST-3D+CLVisc+SMASH simulation chain to study sensitivity of longitudinal flow to hydrodynamic start time.

Forward trijet production in proton-nucleus collisions: gluon initiated channel

hep-ph · 2026-04-08 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0

The gluon-initiated trijet channel in forward pA collisions is calculated at leading order in CGC, revealing a four-gluon vertex structure matching instantaneous terms and showing how rapidity and collinear divergences feed into JIMWLK evolution and PDF/FF kernels.
