Müller, D., Ipp, A., Schlichting, S., & Singh, P. (2022, April 6). Space-time structure of 3+1D color fields in heavy-ion collisions [Poster Presentation]. Quark Matter 2022, Krakow, Poland. http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12708/152825
We perform an analytic calculation of the 3+1D structure of the initial state in heavy-ion collisions by considering the collision of longitudinally extended nuclei in the dilute limit of the Color Glass Condensate effective field theory of high-energy QCD. Based on general analytic expressions for the color fields in the future light cone, we compute the non-trivial rapidity profiles of the transverse pressure at early times. We validate our (semi-) analytic results against non-perturbative 3+1D classical Yang-Mills simulations [2,3] and discuss prospects for the development of 3+1D initial state models based on our calculation.
