The Colored Glass Condensate and Extreme Qcd

چکیده

The high energy limit of QCD is controlled by the small-x part of a hadron wavefunction. I argue that this part is universal to all hadrons and is composed of a new form of matter: a Colored Glass Condensate. This matter is weakly interacting at very small x, but is non-perturbative because of the highly occupied boson states which compose the condensate. Such a matter might be studied in high energy lepton-hadron or hadron-hadron interactions.

SMALL x, SATURATION AND THE HIGH ENERGY LIMIT OF QCD

The high energy limit of QCD is controlled by the small-x part of a hadron wavefunction. We argue that this part is universal to all hadrons and is composed of a new form of matter: a Colored Glass Condensate. This matter is weakly interacting at very small x, but is nonperturbative because of the highly occupied boson states which compose the condensate. Such a matter might be studied in high ...

Gluon Saturation and the Formation Stage of Heavy Ion Collisions

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 Glass Condensate, a Glasma is formed with longitudinal flux tubes of color electric and color magnetic fields. These flux tubes decay and might form a turbulent liquid that eventually thermalizes into a Quark Gluon Pl...

The Color Glass Condensate: an overview

The Color Glass Condensate is a theory of the dynamical properties of partons in the Regge limit of QCD: xBj → 0, Q 2 >> Λ2QCD = fixed and the center of mass energy squared s → ∞. We provide a brief introduction to the theoretical ideas underlying the Color Glass Condensate and discuss the application of these ideas to high energy scattering in QCD. PACS. PACS-key describing text of that key – ...

Hadronic scattering in the Color Glass Condensate

Multi-particle production in QCD is dominated by higher twist contributions. The operator product expansion is not very effective here because the number of relevant operators grow rapidly with increasing twist. The Color Glass Condensate (CGC) provides a framework in QCD to systematically discuss “classical” (multiple scattering) and “quantum” evolution (shadowing) effects in multi-particle pr...

Color Glass Condensate in Qcd at High Energy

1 The Color Glass Condensate The main purpose of this talk is to convince you that high energy limit of QCD is the Color Glass Condensate. More precisely, when the energy of hadronic scattering is very large, the participating hadrons or nuclei behave not as usual states made of valence particles, but as new form of matter called the color glass condensate (CGC). This name is after the followin...
