Multiparticle correlations in high energy nucleus-nucleus collisions
The bulk of particle production in nucleus-nucleus collisions at high
energy is dominated by partons that carry a small fraction x of the
momentum of the projectiles, a regime of QCD that can be described by
the Color Glass Condensate effective theory. In this talk, I will show
how to resum the large logarithms of 1/x that arise in higher order
corrections to observables relevant for these collisions. Then, I
will discuss some phenomenological consequences, and their possible
relevance to explain features observed in RHIC experimental results.
