Gluon Saturation and the Formation Stage of Heavy Ion Collisions
Larry McLerran
The high energy limit of QCD is controlled by very high energy density gluonic matter, the Color Glass Condensate. In the first instants of the collisions of two sheets of Colored…
The Color Glass Condensate and Glasma
Larry McLerran
These two lectures concern the Color Glass Condensate and the Glasma. These are forms of matter which might be studied in high energy hadronic collisions. The Color Glass Condensat…
Baryons and the phase diagram for a large number of colors and flavors
Yoshimasa Hidaka, Larry D. McLerran, Robert D. Pisarski
We consider the possible phases of a non-Abelian gauge theory, as a function of temperature and quark chemical potential, when both the number of colors and flavors is very large.…
Heavy Ion Collisions and New Forms of Matter
Larry McLerran
I discuss forms of high energy density matter in QCD. These include the Color Glass Condensate, the Glasma and the Quark Gluon Plasma. They all might be studied in ultra-relativist…
Liouville field theory for gluon saturation in QCD at high energy
Edmond Iancu, Larry McLerran
We argue that quantum Liouville field theory supplemented with a suitable source term is the effective theory which describes the short-range correlations of the gluon saturation m…
What is the Evidence for the Color Glass Condensate?
Larry McLerran
I introduce the concept of the Color Glass Condensate. I review data from HERA and RHIC which suggest that such a universal form of matter has been found.
