A simple phenomenological relationship between the ridge distribution in $\Delta\eta$ and the single-particle distribution in $\eta$ can be established from the PHOBOS data on both distributions. The implication points to the possibility…
The formation of ridges induced by semihard scattering in nuclear collisions is included in the description of single-particle distributions for both pion and proton at low transverse momenta. The ridge component is characterized by an…
We attribute the phenomenon known as "the ridge" to long range initial state correlations from Color Glass Condensate flux tubes and later stage radial flow. We show that this description can explain the amplitude and azimuthal width of the…
In the (Delta phi)-(Delta eta) correlation associated with a near-side jet observed by the STAR Collaboration in heavy-ion collisions at RHIC [Ref. 1-6], the ridge structure can be explained by the momentum kick model in which the ridge…
One of the most important experimental results for proton-proton scattering at the LHC is the observation of a so-called "ridge" structure in the two particle correlation function versus the pseudorapidity difference $\Delta\eta$ and the…
We present the first results on 3-particle $\Delta\eta$-$\Delta\eta$ correlations in minimum bias $d$+Au, peripheral and central Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{{\it s}_{NN}}$ = 200 GeV measured by the STAR experiment. The analysis technique is…
In these proceedings, a measurement of two-particle correlations with a high transverse momentum trigger particle (pT_trig > 2.5 GeV/c) is presented for Au+Au collisions at sqrt(s_NN) = 200 GeV over the uniquely broad longitudinal…
We investigate the role of jet and shower parton broadening by the strong colour field in the $\Delta\eta$-$\Delta\phi$ correlation of high $p_T$ particles. When anisotropic momentum broadening ($\Delta p_z > \Delta p_T$) is given to jet…
We report the first three-particle coincidence measurement in pseudorapidity ($\Delta\eta$) between a high transverse momentum ($p_{\perp}$) trigger particle and two lower $p_{\perp}$ associated particles within azimuth…
We review the models suggested, to date, as an explanation for the so called "ridge" phenomenon, an elongation in rapidity of 2-particle correlations seen at RHIC and LHC energies. We argue that these models can be divided into two…
Correlations between particles separated by several units of pseudorapidity were discovered in high-multiplicity pp and p-Pb collisions at the LHC. These long-range structures observed in two-particle correlation functions are reminiscent…
Recent data from heavy ion collisions at RHIC show unexpectedly large near-angle correlations that broaden longitudinally with centrality. The amplitude of this ridge-like correlation rises rapidly with centrality, reaches a maximum, and…
Correlation measurements indicate that excess two particle correlations extend over causally disconnected rapidity ranges. Although, this enhancement is broad in relative rapidity $\eta=\eta_1 - \eta_2$, it is focused in a narrow region in…
Two particle correlation measurements in heavy ion collisions at RHIC have shown an extended near side correlation in $\Delta\eta$ relative to p+p for both, momentum triggered and untriggered analyses. This phenomenon is also known as the…
We consider the zeta distributions which are discrete power law distributions that can be interpreted as the counterparts of the continuous Pareto distributions with unit scale. The family of zeta distributions forms a discrete exponential…
We present new results on 2-particle azimuthal ($\Delta\phi$) correlation relative to event plane and 3-particle pseudorapidity ($\Delta\eta$) correlation at mid-rapidity in Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{{\it s}_{NN}}$ = 200 GeV, measured by…
The observation of long range ridge-like structure in the near-side region of the two particle $\Delta\eta-\Delta\phi$ correlations as measured by LHC experiments in high multiplicity p$-$p collisions indicated towards the presence of…
Results on two-particle angular correlations are presented in proton-proton collisions at center of mass energies of 7 TeV, over a broad range of pseudorapidity and azimuthal angle. In very high multiplicity events at 7 TeV, a pronounced…
We point out that the mixed-event method for two-particle acceptance correction, widely used in particle correlation measurements at RHIC and LHC, is wrong in cases where the single particle pseudorapidity distribution is significantly…
We compare rain event size distributions derived from measurements in climatically different regions, which we find to be well approximated by power laws of similar exponents over broad ranges. Differences can be seen in the large-scale…
