Classical Gluodynamics of High Energy Nuclear Collisions: an Erratum and an Update

Abstract

We comment on the relation of our previous work on the classical gluodynamics of high energy nuclear collisions to recent work by Lappi (hep-ph/0303076). While our results for the non-perturbative number liberation coefficient agree, those for the energy disagree by a factor of 2. This discrepancy can be traced to an overall normalization error in our non-perturbative formula for the energy. When corrected for, all previous results are in excellent agreement with those of Lappi. The implications of the results of these two independent computations for RHIC phenomenology are noted.
