10 Aug 2003 | Journal: | Phys.Lett. B586 (2004) 244-253 | Subject: | nucl-th hep-ex hep-ph nucl-ex | Affiliation: | Columbia U. | Abstract: | 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 due geometrical shadowing, and a moderate-pT Cronin enhancement of hadron spectra. The formal equivalence to recent classical Yang-Mills calculations is demonstrated, but our approach is shown to be more general in the large x>0.01 domain because it automatically incorporates the finite kinematic constraints of both quark and gluon processes in the fragmentation regions, and accounts for the observed spectra in elementary pp-->pi+X processes in the RHIC energy range, sqrt{s} = 20-200 GeV. The Glauber-Eikonal formalism can be used as a baseline to extract the magnitude of dynamical shadowing effects from the experimental data at differente centralities and pseudo-rapidities. | Source: | arXiv, nucl-th/0308029 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
