We simulate the creation and evolution of non-boost-invariant Glasma in the early stages of heavy ion collisions within the color glass condensate framework. This is accomplished by extending the McLerran-Venugopalan model to include a parameter for the Lorentz-contracted but finite width of the nucleus in the beam direction. We determine the rapidity profile of the Glasma energy density, which shows deviations from the boost-invariant result. Varying the parameters both broad and narrow profiles can be produced. We compare our results to experimental data from RHIC and find surprising agreement.

Analytic and Approximate Solutions to Color Glass Condensate in the Classical Weak-Field Limit
In the weak-field CGC limit the glasma energy-momentum tensor has universal late-time scaling ε,PT∼1/τ and PL∼1/τ³, with closed Meijer-G forms in the MV model and controlled series in an improved Gaussian model.

Effects of sub-nucleonic fluctuations on the longitudinal structure of heavy-ion collisions
Sub-nucleonic hotspots in the initial state increase longitudinal flow decorrelation and reduce baryon stopping in simulated Pb+Pb collisions, but the model still underestimates decorrelation in mid-central events.

Effective theories for nuclei at high energies
This paper reviews the Color Glass Condensate effective theory, covering its foundations, its role in deep inelastic scattering, and its use in setting initial conditions for heavy-ion collisions.
