Long-range angular correlations by strong color fields in hadronic collisions
Kevin Dusling
TL;DR
This paper reviews the ridge phenomenon observed in proton-proton and proton-lead collisions, attributing it to non-linear gluon dynamics in the small-x regime of hadronic wave-functions.
Contribution
It provides an overview of how strong color fields and non-linear gluon interactions explain long-range angular correlations in high-energy hadronic collisions.
Findings
Ridge phenomenon arises from non-linear gluon interactions.
Long-range correlations are linked to small-x gluon dynamics.
Color field effects produce collimation in rapidity-separated hadron pairs.
Abstract
I present an overview of the ridge phenomenon in proton-proton and proton-lead collisions. This novel collimation between rapidity separated hadron pairs is a consequence of non-linear gluon dynamics within the small-x wave-function of the colliding hadrons.
