Saturation effects in exclusive vector meson production in DIS

Oscar Garcia-Montero, Yannik Hoffmann, Sören Schlichting

We investigate saturation effects in exclusive vector meson production in deep inelastic scattering (DIS), where we model fluctuations within the target protons as localized color-…

Effects of Subnucleonic Fluctuations on the Longitudinal Dynamics of Heavy-Ion Collisions

Oscar Garcia-Montero, Sören Schlichting, Jie Zhu

It is well understood that subnuclear fluctuations in the initial state of heavy-ion collisions have an important impact on the creation of long-range correlations in the transvers…

Effects of sub-nucleonic fluctuations on the longitudinal structure of heavy-ion collisions

Oscar Garcia-Montero, Sören Schlichting, Jie Zhu

Sub-nuclear fluctuations in the initial state of heavy-ion collisions impact not only transverse long-range correlations of small systems, but also the creation of longitudinal str…

Baryon stopping and charge deposition in heavy-ion collisions due to gluon saturation

Oscar Garcia-Montero, Sören Schlichting

We compute baryon and electric charge deposition in high-energy heavy-ion collisions using the Color Glass Condensate (CGC) Effective Field Theory, where at leading order charge is…

Scaling of pre-equilibrium dilepton production in QCD Kinetic Theory

Oscar Garcia-Montero, Philip Plaschke, Sören Schlichting

We use QCD kinetic theory to compute dilepton production coming from the pre-equilibrium phase of the Quark-Gluon Plasma created in high-energy heavy-ion collisions. We demonstrate…

Effective theories for nuclei at high energies

Oscar Garcia-Montero, Sören Schlichting

We discuss the application of the Color Glass Condensate (CGC), an effective field theory of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD), to describe high-energy nuclear interactions. We first pr…
