Nuclear Physics Seminar

"Probing the nuclear structure at small x, e+A vs d+A collisions"

Presented by Cyrille Marquet, CERN, Switzerland

Tuesday, November 9, 2010, 11:00 am — Large Seminar Room, Bldg. 510

Our present knowledge of the nuclear structure at small x is not sufficient to quantitatively understand relativistic heavy-ion collisions. In relation with p+A collisions, I explain how different processes in e+A deep inelastic scattering allow one to extract important information about the distribution of gluons in nuclei. In particular I will discuss the impact-parameter dependence and the transverse-momentum dependence of the gluon distribution, as well as multi-gluon correlations which are equally important at small x.
