The glasma initial state and JIMWLK factorization
arXiv:0810.1610 · doi:10.1016/j.nuclphysa.2009.01.028
Abstract
We review recent work on understanding the next to leading order corrections to the classical fields that dominate the initial stages of a heavy ion collision. We have recently shown that the leading ln(1/x) divergences of these corrections to gluon multiplicities can be factorized into the JIMWLK evolution of the color charge density distributions.
