Simulating collisions of thick nuclei in the color glass condensate framework
read the original abstract
We present our work on the simulation of the early stages of heavy-ion collisions with finite longitudinal thickness in the laboratory frame in 3+1 dimensions. In particular we study the effects of nuclear thickness on the production of a glasma state in the McLerran-Venugopalan model within the color glass condensate framework. A finite thickness enables us to describe nuclei at lower energies, but forces us to abandon boost-invariance. As a consequence, random classical color sources within the nuclei have to be included in the simulation, which is achieved by using the colored particle-in-cell (CPIC) method. We show that the description in the laboratory frame agrees with boost-invariant approaches as a limiting case. Furthermore we investigate collisions beyond boost-invariance, in particular the pressure anisotropy in the glasma.

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.
