In the color glass condensate framework, the initial state of the system formed immediately after the collision of two heavy ions at high energy can be represented as a superposition of a classical color field and gaussian quantum fluctuations. This approximation is substanciated by results that show that all the leading logarithms of the collision energy are universal and can be factorized...

Di-hadron angular correlations in the forward rapidity region of proton-nucleus
collisions probe multi-gluon correlators (n-point functions of Wilson lines) in the
wave function of target nucleus at small x and thus, provide a more detailed
picture of QCD dynamics at high energy (CGC). The Renormalization Group
equations that govern the energy dependence of these n-point functions will...

Within the framework of generalized collinear factorization in perturbative QCD (pQCD), we study the effect of initial multiple parton scattering and induced parton energy loss in Drell-Yan (DY) process in proton-nucleus collisions. We express the contribution from multiple parton scattering and induced gluon radiation to the DY dilepton spectra in terms of nuclear modified effective beam...

The forthcoming p+Pb run at the LHC will provide crucial in formation on the initial state effects of heavy ion collisions and on the gluon saturation phenomena. In turn, most of the saturation inspired phenomenology in heavy ion collisions borrows substantial empiric information from the analysis of e+p data, where abundant high quality data on the small-x kinematic region is available....

I will show the results of our recent investigation of the inclusive hadron and prompt photon production in proton (deuteron)-nucleus (pA) collisions at RHIC and the LHC within the Color Glass Condensate (CGC) framework. We investigate the contribution of inelastic and elastic processes to single inclusive hadron production in proton-proton and pA collisions at RHIC and the LHC. Using the...

The Large Hadron-electron Collider LHeC is a proposed facility at CERN to collide electrons and positrons against the LHC beams at center-of-mass energies around 1 TeV per nucleon, with the aim of studying previously unexplored kinematical regions of the hadron and nuclear wave functions. After a brief physical motivation, I will present the project. Then I will focus on the opportunities for...
