High gluon densities & heavy ions

  • Believed: heavy ion collisions at RHIC, LHC

= collisions of two Color Glass Condensate

  • but what are the correct initial conditions?

Saturation: high densities in the fast nucleus

CGC and long-range rapidity correlations in high multiplicity events

  • high multiplicities → screening of color charges introduces → saturation scale
  • high & saturated gluon densities (HERA fit with modified initial saturation

scale, higher correlators from “Gaussian/dilute approximation”)

  • take limit pT/QS≪1, 2 contributions: “glasma” and “jet” graph

What we know and what we don’t know

  • extracted saturation scales at HERA not so large (0.75-2

GeV2) + DGLAP fits initial conditions at small Q2

  • description of HERA data by saturation AND DGLAP not

really a contradiction, but also not yet definite proof for saturation, cannot claim complete control

  • can use HERA fits (e.g. rcBK) in pA, AA, high multiplicity

events through scaling of (initial) saturation scale 
 Qs(A) = QsHERA ・A1/3, but rely on assumptions/arguments

  • in general: initial conditions not controlled on the level of

accuracy as e.g. in pp through conventional pdfs

Tasks for theory…

so far:

  • still rely often on models (even though an sophisticated level) such

as IPsat, bCGC → x-dependence = assumption + fit

  • fits with evolution (rcBK): LO BK + running coupling corrections,

coefficients at LO, with a few NLO exceptions (inclusive DIS, single

inclusive jet in pA)


recent progress:

  • NLO corrections for evolution [Balitsky, Chirilli; PRD 88 (2013) 111501, PRD 77 (2008) 014019];

[Kovner,Lublinsky, Mulian; PRD 89 (2014) 6, 061704] known & studied + resummed &

used for first HERA fit [Iancu, Madrigal, Mueller, Soyez, Triantafyllopoulos, PLB750 (2015) 643] 
 missing:
 → NLO corrections for coefficients of exclusive observables — provide strongest constraints on saturation

the presented studies have certain limitations uncontrolled higher order corrections (only LO in 𝞫S) dilute expansion p1t+p2t|≫QS 
 (=probe the tail of saturation, but appropriate in certain kinematics) need to increase theory precision for establishing saturation + extracting gluon distributions (important for precision at EIC but also LHC, HERA analysis)

  • ur project: calculate (NEW: NLO from momentum space)
  • A. tri-particle production at LO (new for DIS, pA 1st

complete) 


expect more stringent tests of CGC through more complex final state

  • B. di-particle production at NLO (3 partons a subset!)


reduce uncertainties + possibly identify overlap region between collinear factorisation and saturation physics

As a first step: limit to DIS (electron-nucleus i.e. ɣ*A collisions)
 but derive important general results on the way
 → first step for future pPb calculation in “hybrid-”formalism

Loop integrals

slide-34
SLIDE 34

something slightly strange:

Loop Integrals also for Real corrections

technical reason:

  • momentum space amplitudes obtained from field correlators during LSZ

reduction procedure

  • integration over coordinates at vertices yields delta functions which evaluate

momentum integrals trivially

  • here: coordinate dependence of background field → some of the delta

functions absent intuitive picture: 
 background field = t-channel gluons interacting with the target → naturally provide a loop which is factorized & (partially) absorbed into the projectile in the high energy limit

Dirac traces from Computer Algebra Codes

  • possible to express elements of Dirac trace in terms of

scalar, vector and rank 2 tensor integrals

  • Evaluation requires use of computer algebra codes;


use 2 implementations: 
 FORM [Vermaseren, math-ph/0010025] & 
 Mathematica packages FeynCalc and FormLink

  • result (3 partons) as coefficients of “basis”-functions f(a) and

h(a,b); result lengthy (~100kB), but manageable

  • currently working on further simplification through integration

by parts relation between basis function (work in progress)

Next step: complete NLO corrections

  • integrate one of the produced particles → additional divergences
  • rapidity divergence: JIMWLK evolution of dipoles & quadrupoles (and

their products)

  • high MX diffraction: require extension of JIMWLK to exclusive reactions 


[Hentschinski, Weigert, Schäfer, Phys.Rev. D73 (2006) 051501]

  • soft singularities cancel between real & virtual
  • for ɣ*→hh + X: final state collinear divergences: fragmentation functions
  • for q → jj + X etc: initial state collinear divergences: parton distribution functions


+ need to take care of potential soft factors work in progress related work:

Summary

  • CGC is a systematic approach to high gluon densities in high

energy collisions — used to fit a wealth of data (ep, pp, pA, AA)

  • LO CGC works (sometimes too) well; qualitative/semi-

quantitative description of data requires NLO

  • to arrive at a precise picture of saturated gluon densities we

need precision — both experiment and theory

  • Di-jet/-hadron angular correlations offer a unique probe of the

CGC (both eA and pA)

  • Tri-jet/-hadron should be even more discriminatory
slide-42
SLIDE 42
  • developed techniques (diagram reduction, integrals) -

might have been available before, but never been exploited in a systematic way for this kind of calculation

  • proof of concept for NLO momentum space calculation


advantage: benefit from standard techniques for higher

  • rders in QCD 


(important: soft- and collinear singularities!)

  • concentrate on DIS, but results (integrals, codes)

extends beyond →3-jets, NLO correction for saturation/ CGC observables in e.g. pA at RHIC/LHC
