The Color Glass Condensate is a universal state of matter which can manifest itself in hadronic processes involving small-x partons, like DIS and pp, pA and AA collisions at high energy. Observables are given in terms of multi-gluon…
The eccentricity in coordinate-space at midrapidity of the overlap zone in high-energy heavy-ion collisions predicted by the $k_\perp$-factorization formalism is generically larger than expected from scaling with the number of participants.…
Recent data from heavy ion collisions at RHIC show strong near-side correlations extending over several units of rapidity. This ridge-like correlation exhibits an abrupt onset with collision centrality. In this talk, I argue that the…
We present a good description of recent experimental data on forward di-hadron azimuthal correlations measured in deuteron-gold collisions at RHIC, where monojet production has been observed. Our approach is based on the Color Glass…
The Color Glass Condensate is an effective theory description for the small momentum fraction x degrees of freedom in a high energy hadron or nucleus, which can be understood in terms of strong classical gluon fields. We discuss the…
We argue that quantum Liouville field theory supplemented with a suitable source term is the effective theory which describes the short-range correlations of the gluon saturation momentum in the two-dimensional impact-parameter space, at…
We argue that large fluctuations in the saturation momentum are necessary to explain the ATLAS and ALICE data on pA collisions measured at the LHC. Using a form for the distribution of fluctuations motivated by theoretical studies of the…
The expanding fireball shortly after a heavy ion collision may be qualitatively described by a condensate of color fields or gluons which is analogous to Bose-Einstein-condensation for massive bosonic particles. This condensate is a…
Cross-correlation techniques provide a promising avenue for calibrating photometric redshifts and determining redshift distributions using spectroscopy which is systematically incomplete (e.g., current deep spectroscopic surveys fail to…

We take hydrodynamic initial conditions in relativistic heavy ion collisions from the Color Glass Condensate (CGC) picture through the kT factorization formula. Gluon distributions produced from the CGC are found to provide good initial…
We argue that the transverse mass spectra of identified hadrons as measured in gold-gold collisions at BNL's Relativistic Heavy-Ion Collider (RHIC) follows a generalized scaling law. Such a scaling behavior is motivated by the idea of a…
We continue our studies of possible generalization of the Color Glass Condensate (CGC) effective theory of high energy QCD to include the high $p_t$ (or equivalently large $x$) QCD dynamics as proposed in [JJM-elastic]. Here we consider…
We extend previous work on high energy nuclear collisions in the Color Glass Condensate model to study collisions of finite ultrarelativistic nuclei. The changes implemented include a) imposition of color neutrality at the nucleon level and…
We study multi-particle production with rapidity correlations in high-energy p+A collisions. In the context of the Color Glass Condensate, the evolution for such correlations is governed by a generalization of the JIMWLK equation which…
Recent data from heavy ion collisions at RHIC show unexpectedly large near-angle correlations that broaden longitudinally with increasing centrality. The amplitude of this ridge-like correlation rises rapidly, reaches a maximum, and then…
We reconsider the restoration of the residual gauge symmetry (RGS) due to topological effects as a possible criterion for color confinement. Although the RGS is ``spontaneously broken'' in the perturbative vacuum, it must be restored in the…
We perform a numerical analysis of the two particle azimuthal correlations at central rapidities generated in $p$A collisions within the framework of the Color Glass Condensate. We extend the standard computations to include the subeikonal…
Two-particle rapidity (or pseudorapidity) correlation function $C(y_1, y_2)$ was used in analysing fluctuation of particle density distribution in rapidity in high-energy heavy-ion collisions. In our research, we argue that for a centrality…
In the recent years we have seen a lot of activity around systems and experiments, like DIS at HERA or the heavy-ion experiments at RHIC, involving a large number of partons due to the high enery and/or the high number of participants of…
