We review the Color Glass Condensate effective theory, that describes the gluon content of a high energy hadron or nucleus, in the saturation regime. The emphasis is put on applications to high energy heavy ion collisions. After describing…
A framework combining Yang-Mills dynamics of the pre-equilibrium glasma with relativistic viscous hydrodynamic evolution of the quark-gluon plasma and hadron gas phases is presented. Event-by-event fluctuations of nucleon positions and…
We review the apparently hydrodynamic behaviour of low transverse momentum particles (p_T < 1.5 GeV/c) produced in central and semicentral (b < 7 fm) heavy ion collisions at RHIC. We investigate the impact parameter dependence of various…
An $\eta$-elongated same-side 2D peak ("soft ridge") in minimum-bias angular correlations from heavy ion collisions has been attributed both to jet formation and to initial-state geometry structure coupled to radial flow. We consider…
I provide a brief introduction to the theoretical ideas and phenomenological motivation for the Color Glass Condensate and the Glasma
The agglomeration of particles caused by the formation of capillary bridges has a decisive impact on the transport properties of a variety of at a first sight very different systems such as capillary suspensions, fluidized beds in chemical…
We consider the SU(2) Glasma with gaussian fluctuations and study its evolution by means of classical Yang-Mills equations solved numerically on a lattice. Neglecting in this first study the longitudinal expansion we follow the evolution of…
High-energy nuclear collisions exhibit collective flow, which emerges as a dynamical response of the Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) to the initial state geometry of the collision. Collective flow in heavy-ion collisions is usually described…
We study the phenomenological impact of the pre-equilibrium glasma initial stage of heavy-ion collisions on heavy quark azimuthal correlations and spectra. Using our numerical solver, we simulate the transport of heavy quark test particles…
We analyze the behavior of unstable modes in the glasma produced in high energy heavy ion collisions, using a simple model with effective homogeneous longitudinal color electric and magnetic fields. The unstable modes are approximately…
Event-by-event fluctuations of initial QCD-matter density produced in heavy-ion collisions at RHIC enhance the production of thermal photons significantly in the region $2 \le p_T \le 4$ GeV/$c$ compared to a smooth initial-state averaged…
In this paper, we consider the particle laden flows on a inclined plane under the effect of the gravity. It is observed from preceding experimental works that the particle-rich ridge is generated near the contact line. The bump structure…
We present a succinct formulation of the energy-momentum tensor of the Glasma characterizing the initial color fields in relativistic heavy-ion collisions in the Color Glass Condensate effective theory. We derive concise expressions for the…
We investigate the effect of the glasma classical color fields, produced in the very early stage of heavy-ion collisions, on the transport of heavy quarks. The glasma fields evolve according to the classical Yang-Mills equations, while the…
The initial temperature $T_{i}$, energy density $\varepsilon_{i}$, and formation time $\tau_{i}$ of the initial state of the QGP formed in the heavy ion collisions at RHIC and LHC energies are determined using the data driven Color String…
Ridge-like correlations in high-energy proton-proton collisions reported by the CMS collaboration suggest a collective flow that resembles the one in heavy-ion collisions. If the hydrodynamic description is valid then the effect results…
We present high spatial resolution observations of short lived transients, ribbon and jets like events above a pore in Ca II H images where fine structure like umbral dots, lightbridge and penumbral micro filaments are present in the…
It is shown that the anomalous resistivity, thermal conductivity, and magnetic pressure of hot plasmas can be explained by the assumption that the collisional electron-ion cross-section becomes constant above some critical temperature. This…
The fusion of two interacting heavy ions traditionally has been interpreted in terms of the penetration of the projectile into the target. Observed rates well below the Coulomb barrier are considerably lower than estimates obtained from…
Collisions among heavy ions, like Pb or Au, are a great tool to study the theory of strong interactions, that is Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD). In particular, these experiments are able to give insights on all the complex phases of matter…
