Searching Evidence for the Color Glass Condensate at RHIC

Abstract

This contribution discusses the phenomenon of parton saturation, the color glass picture of hadronic wavefuntions, and their relevance in the early stages of nucleus-nucleus collisions. Evidence for the color glass condensate in the presently available RHIC data is critically reviewed.
