In response to the 2013 Update of European Strategy for Particle Physics, Future Circular Collider (FCC) study was launched, as an international collaboration hosted by CERN. This covers a highest-luminosity high-energy lepton collider (FCC-ee) and energy-frontier hadron (FCC-hh), which could, successively, be installed in same 100 km tunnel. The scientific capabilities integrated FCC programme would serve worldwide community throughout 21st century. also investigates LHC energy upgrade,...

We study the solution of nonlinear Balitsky-Kovchegov evolution equation with recently calculated running coupling corrections [I. I. Balitsky, Phys. Rev. D 75, 014001 (2007). and Y. Kovchegov H. Weigert, Nucl. A784, 188 (2007).]. Performing a numerical we confirm earlier result Albacete et al.

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 the Color Glass Condensate effective theory for small-x degrees freedom nuclear wave function, including use non-linear evolution equations with running QCD coupling. analysis provides further evidence presence saturation effects RHIC data.
Using the unintegrated gluon distribution obtained from numerical simulations of Balitsky-Kovchegov equation with running coupling, we obtain a very good description RHIC data on single inclusive hadron production at forward rapidities in both p+p and d+Au collisions. No K-factors are needed for charged hadrons, whereas pion rapidity independent K-factor order 1/3 is needed. Extrapolating to LHC energies, calculate nuclear modification factors light hadrons p+Pb collision, as well...
Predictions for charged hadron, identified light quarkonium, photon, jet and gauge bosons in p+ Pb collisions at [Formula: see text] are compiled compared. When test run data available, they compared to the model predictions.
The nonlinear evolution of dense partonic systems has been suggested as a novel physics mechanism relevant for the dynamics p-A and A-A collisions at collider energies. Here we study to what extent description Cronin enhancement in framework this is consistent with recent observation sqrt[s]=200 GeV d-Au Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider. We solve Balitsky-Kovchegov equation numerically several initial conditions encoding enhancement. find that properly normalized nuclear gluon distribution...
We study the effects of including a running coupling constant in high-density QCD evolution. For fixed constant, evolution preserves initial dependence saturation momentum ${Q}_{s}$ on nuclear size $A$ and results an exponential rapidity $Y$, ${Q}_{s}^{2}(Y)={Q}_{s}^{2}({Y}_{0})\mathrm{exp}[{\overline{\ensuremath{\alpha}}}_{s}d(Y\ensuremath{-}{Y}_{0})]$. case, we rederive analytical estimates for $Y$ dependences scale test them numerically. The vanishes $\ensuremath{\propto}1/\sqrt{Y}$ large...

We present a dynamical explanation of the hollowness effect observed in proton-proton scattering at $\sqrt s\!=\!7$ TeV. This phenomenon, not lower energies, consists depletion inelasticity density zero impact parameter collision. Our analysis is based on three main ingredients: we rely gluonic hot spots inside proton as effective degrees freedom for description process. Next assume that some non-trivial correlation between transverse positions exists. Finally build amplitude from multiple...
