We evaluate the Cronin effect in pA collisions at the CERN LHC and at RHIC in the framework of Glauber-Eikonal model of initial state multiparton interactions. Taking carefully into account all kinematical constraints of each multi-parton…
Baseline computations of the Cronin effect in nuclear collisions at energies spanning the SPS and the RHIC accelerators are performed in the Glauber-Eikonal model, which ascribes the effect to initial-state incoherent multiple parton…
Recent data from RHIC for high-$p_T$ hadrons in gold-gold collisions raised again the long standing problem of quantitatively understanding the Cronin effect, i.e. nuclear enhancement of high-$p_T$ hadrons due to multiple interactions in…
Pions and protons production cross-sections are analyzed in proton-proton and proton-nucleus collisions at the RHIC energy at midrapidity. We employ the pQCD factorization scheme supplemented with the color-dipole formalism to investigate…
Multiple initial state parton interactions in p(d)+A collisions are calculated in a Glauber-Eikonal formalism, which incorporates the competing pattern of low-pT suppression due geometrical shadowing, and a moderate-pT Cronin enhancement of…
Multiple initial state parton interactions in p(d)+Au collisions are calculated in a Glauber-Eikonal formalism. The convolution of perturbative QCD parton-nucleon cross sections predicts naturally the competing pattern of low-pT suppression…
Measurements of identified particle production with the PHENIX experiment at RHIC have reached a mature state, where a multitude of nuclear systems at different colliding energies have been studied. The discovery configurations of…
The influence of nuclear multiscattering and shadowing on pion spectra is investigated in $pA$ collisions from CERN SPS to RHIC energies. The calculations are performed in a next-to-leading order (NLO) pQCD-improved parton model, including…
The impact parameter and rapidity dependence of the Cronin effect for massless pions in $d+Au$ reactions at $\sqrt{s}_{NN}=200$ GeV at RHIC is computed in the framework of pQCD multiple elastic scattering on a nuclear target. We introduce a…
We note that the phenomenon of perturbative saturation leads to transverse momentum broadening in the spectrum of partons produced in hadronic collisions. This broadening has a simple interpretation as parton level Cronin effect for systems…
I compare the available theoretical models that describe the Cronin effect on hadron and minijet production in proton-nucleus collisions, pointing out similarities and differences among them. The effect may be summarized by the value of two…
We review the predictions of the theory of Color Glass Condensate for gluon production cross section in p(d)A collisions. We demonstrate that at moderate energies, when the gluon production cross section can be calculated in the framework…
We present transverse momentum spectra from d+Au collisions at sqrt(s_NN) = 200 GeV for identified hadrons at mid-rapidity and unidentified hadrons in the forward rapidity region using the Solenoidal Tracker at RHIC. We scale these spectra…
Calculations of the nuclear modification factor, R_dAu, for pi^0 production in dAu collisions at s_NN^1/2 = 200 GeV are presented. The applied pQCD-improved parton model incorporates intrinsic k_T. Nuclear multiscattering and nuclear…
I discuss recent experimental data on the Cronin effect in deuteron-gold collisions at the top RHIC energy, in a pseudorapidity range [-2,3]. Two theoretical approaches are compared and contrasted: the pQCD-based Glauber-Eikonal model and…
We present results on identified particle production in p+p, d+Au and Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}} = 200$ GeV at mid-rapidity measured by the PHENIX experiment. The centrality and flavor dependence of the Cronin effect in d+Au…
It has been a challenge to understand the experimental data on both the nuclear modification factor and elliptic flow of $D^0$ mesons in $p-$Pb collisions at LHC energies. In this work, we study these collisions with an improved multi-phase…
I give a pedagogical survey of the nuclear collective effects associated with gluon saturation and their impact on particle production in high-energy proton (or deuteron)-nucleus collisions at RHIC. At central rapidity, the theory predicts…
Identified mid-rapidity particle spectra of $\pi^{\pm}$, $K^{\pm}$, and $p(\bar{p})$ from 200 GeV p+p and d+Au collisions are reported. This data were taken in 2003 run from the Solenoidal Tracker at RHIC (STAR) experiment. A time-of-flight…
Instead of adhering to the usual explanation of the Cronin effect in terms of the broadening of the parton transverse momentum in the initial state, we show that the enhancement of hadron production at moderate $p_T$ in d+Au collisions is…
