We consider double $gg\rightarrow g$ production in the presence of a bias on the unintegrated gluon distribution of the colliding hadron or nuclei. Such bias could be due to the selection of configurations with a greater number of gluons or…

The factorization of soft and ultrasoft gluons from collinear particles is shown at the level of operators in an effective field theory. Exclusive hadronic factorization and inclusive partonic factorization follow as special cases. The…
The number of particles detected in a nucleus-nucleus collision strongly depends on the impact parameter of the collision. Therefore, multiplicity fluctuations, as well as rapidity correlations of multiplicities, are dominated by impact…
We exhibit an exclusive process, namely the photoproduction of a $\pi^{0}\gamma$ pair with large invariant mass, which violates collinear factorization. We explicitly demonstrate that this is due to the fact that there exists diagrams with…
We derive a factorization theorem for the Higgs-boson production amplitude in gluon-gluon fusion induced by a light-quark loop, working at next-to-leading power in soft-collinear effective theory. The factorization is structurally similar…
We investigate the consequences of long range rapidity correlations in the Glasma. Particles produced locally in the transverse plane are correlated by approximately boost invariant flux tubes of longitudinal color electric and magnetic…
Proton-proton collisions are studied in the dilute Glasma framework. Compared to experimental multiplicity distributions, the dilute Glasma underestimates large multiplicity events. We show how event-by-event fluctuations of the saturation…
