Azimuthal angle correlations at large rapidities: revisiting density variation mechanism

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2017-12-06 v1

Abstract

In the paper we discuss the angular correlation present in hadron-hadron collisions at large rapidity difference (\basy121\bas\,y_{12}\,\gg\,1). We find that in the CGC/saturation approach the largest contribution stems from the density variation mechanism. Our principal results are that the odd Fourier harmonics(v2n+1v_{2n+1}), decrease substantially as function of y12y_{12}, while the even harmonics (v2nv_{2n} ), increase considerably with a growth of y12y_{12}.
