Two-gluon rapidity correlations of strong colour field in pppp, pApA and AAAA collisions

preprint2016arXivOpen access

Abstract

Using the CGC formalism, we calculate the two-gluon rapidity correlations of strong colour fields in pppp, pApA and AAAA collisions, respectively. If one trigger gluon is fixed at central rapidity, a ridge-like correlation pattern is obtained in symmetry pppp and AAAA collisions, and a huge bump-like correlation pattern is presented in asymmetry pApA collisions. It is demonstrated that the ridge-like correlation patterns are caused by the stronger correlation with the gluon of colour source. The transverse momentum and incident energy dependence of the ridge-like correlation pattern is also systematically studied. The ridge is more likely observed at higher incident energy and lower transverse momentum of trigger gluon.
