Theoretical developments on the initial state in relativistic particle collisions
Heikki Mäntysaari
We discuss recent progress towards developing accurate initial state descriptions for heavy ion collisions focusing on weak coupling based approaches, that enable one to constrain…
Probing nuclear structure at the Electron-Ion Collider and in ultra-peripheral nuclear collisions
Heikki Mäntysaari, Farid Salazar, Björn Schenke +2
Within the Color Glass Condensate framework, we demonstrate that exclusive vector meson production at high energy is sensitive to the geometric deformation of the target nucleus an…
Energy dependent nuclear suppression from gluon saturation in exclusive vector meson production
Heikki Mäntysaari, Farid Salazar, Björn Schenke
We calculate the exclusive photoproduction cross section at high energies from the Color Glass Condensate approach. The results are compared to the center-of-mass en…
Inferring the initial condition for the Balitsky-Kovchegov equation
Carlisle Casuga, Mikko Karhunen, Heikki Mäntysaari
We apply Bayesian inference to determine the posterior likelihood distribution for the parameters describing the initial condition of the small- Balitsky-Kovchegov evolution equ…
Effects of nuclear structure and quantum interference on diffractive vector meson production in ultra-peripheral nuclear collisions
Heikki Mäntysaari, Farid Salazar, Björn Schenke +2
We study diffractive vector meson production in ultra-peripheral collisions (UPCs) of heavy nuclei, utilizing a theoretical framework based on the Color Glass Condensate (CGC) form…
Complete Next-to-Leading Order Calculation of Single Inclusive Production in Forward Proton-Nucleus Collisions
Heikki Mäntysaari, Yossathorn Tawabutr
We present the first fully consistent calculation of inclusive production at forward rapidities at next-to-leading order (NLO) accuracy in proton-lead collisions at $\sqrt{s}…
