چکیده
Neutral pion (π 0) production is calculated in a leading order (LO) perturbative QCD-based model in pp and dAu collisions at √ s = 200 AGeV at midrapidity. The model includes the transverse component of the initial parton distribution. We compare our results for pp collision to experimental data at RHIC energy. We repeat our calculation for the dAu collision and investigate the interplay between shadowing and multiple scattering. In central dAu collisions the influence of possible jet energy loss on cold nuclear matter is discussed and numerical results are displayed.

Calculations of the nuclear modification factor, R dAu , for π 0 production in dAu collisions at √ s = 200 AGeV are presented. The applied pQCD-improved parton model incorporates intrinsic k T. Nuclear multiscattering and nuclear shadowing are considered in the Au nucleus. Theoretical results are displayed for midrapidity and high pseudorapidity (η), and compared to preliminary PHENIX and BRAHM...

A model in which the soft collisions of the nucleon are described in terms of interactions of its two constituents (a quark and a diquark) is proposed. When adjusted to describe precisely the elastic proton-proton scattering data and supplemented with the idea of wounded constituents, the model accounts rather well for the centrality dependence of particle production in the central rapidity reg...

In the field theoretical Glauber-Gribov framework in the eikonal approximation , we show that, in hadron-nucleus collisions in the high-energy limit and under especific conditions, the rescattering contributions to the J/ψ production cross-section vanish, leading to an A 1 dependence on the atomic number A – except for nuclear effects in the nucleus structure function, the so-called shadowing. ...
