Classical initial conditions in high energy nucleus-nucleus collisions
Yacine Mehtar-Tani
An iterative proceedure is proposed to compute the classical gauge field produced in the collision of two heavy nuclei at high energy. The leading order is obtained by linearizing…
The classical field created in early stages of high energy nucleus-nucleus collisions
Jean-Paul Blaizot, Yacine Mehtar-Tani
We show that a special choice of light-cone gauge can greatly simplify the calculation of the classical color field created in the initial stages of nucleus-nucleus collisions. Wit…
Jet quenching and broadening: the transport coefficient in an anisotropic plasma
Rolf Baier, Yacine Mehtar-Tani
The jet quenching parameter is analyzed for a quark jet propagating in an anisotropic plasma. The momentum anisotropy is calculated at high temperature of the underlying…
A unified description of initial and final state interactions in heavy ion collisions
Yacine Mehtar-Tani
We have investigated the gauge field of a fast moving projectile passing through a dense medium. We provide a simple and unified derivation, in light cone gauge, of the gluon produ…
Has saturation physics been observed in deuteron-gold collisions at RHIC?
Yacine Mehtar-Tani
We have addressed the question of whether saturation (CGC) has been observed in deuteron-gold collisions at RHIC. We have made a detailed analysis of the Cronin peak characteristic…
Relating the description of gluon production in pA collisions and parton energy loss in AA collisions
Yacine Mehtar-Tani
We calculate the classical gluon field of a fast projectile passing through a dense medium. We show that this allows us to calculate both the initial state gluon production in prot…
