Probing gluon saturation via diffractive jets in ultra-peripheral nucleus-nucleus collisions
read the original abstract
We argue that semi-inclusive photo-production of a pair of hard jets via coherent diffraction in nucleus-nucleus ultra-peripheral collisions at high energy is a golden channel to study gluon saturation. The dominant contribution is the diffractive production of three jets in an asymmetric configuration. Two of the jets are hard and propagate at nearly central pseudo-rapidities. The third jet is semi-hard, with transverse momentum comparable to the nuclear saturation momentum, and is well separated in pseudo-rapidity from the hard dijets. The emission of the semi-hard jet allows for strong scattering, thus avoiding the "higher-twist" suppression of the exclusive dijet production due to colour transparency. We compute the trijet cross-section using the diffractive TMD factorisation which emerges from the CGC effective theory at high energy. The cross-section is controlled by gluon saturation, which leaves its imprints on the structure of the final state, notably on the rapidity distribution.

TMD factorization in diffractive heavy-quark production in photon-nucleus collisions
TMD factorization holds for diffractive massive quark-antiquark-gluon production in the correlation limit, with a new mass-dependent quark diffractive TMD in the antiquark-gluon hard pair case.

When JIMWLK evolution really matters: the example of incoherent diffraction
JIMWLK evolution gives larger incoherent diffraction cross sections than the Gaussian approximation for photon-nucleus collisions because the latter is invalid for four-gluon starting correlators.

When JIMWLK evolution really matters: the example of incoherent diffraction
JIMWLK evolution produces systematically larger incoherent diffraction cross sections than the Gaussian Approximation in photon-nucleus collisions because the latter is invalid for four-gluon-exchange correlators.

Azimuthal decorrelation in diffractive dijet production
All-order resummation of soft gluons for transverse energy-energy correlators in diffractive dijet production demonstrates sensitivity of acoplanarity to diffractive TMDs.

Collinearly Improved Balitsky-Kovchegov Evolution of the Gluon Wigner Distribution
Collinearly improved IMST BK evolution moves the elliptic node and reshapes the rapidity and hard-scale dependence of coherent diffractive dijet ⟨cos2φ⟩ relative to LO BK, not just a normalization shift.

Collinearly Improved Balitsky-Kovchegov Evolution of the Gluon Wigner Distribution
Collinearly improved BK evolution shifts the elliptic node position and alters the rapidity and hard-scale dependence of the coherent dijet cos2φ signal rather than producing a simple normalization change.
