Forward rapidity di-hadron azimuthal angular correlations in high energy proton-nucleus and proton-proton collisions are sensitive to quadrupoles; traceless correlator of 4 Wilson lines whereas single inclusive particle production iNVOLVES only dipoles, traceless correlator of 2 Wilson lines. We discuss the progress made in understanding the energy (rapidity) evolution of the quadrupole as well as its various limits.

At high energy (small x) n-point coorelators of Wilson lines appear in calculation of physical observables. The energy dependence of these observables is determined by the solution of the evolution equations these correlators satisfy. The most common correlator is the two-point function, the imaginary part of the forward scattering amplitude of a quark anti-quark dipole scattering on a target. This appears in structure functions in DIS as well as single inclusive hadron production in proton-nucleus collisions. Higher point correlators of Wilson lines appear in less inclusive processes, such as two-hadron angular and rapidity correlations and satisfy the Balitski-JIMWLK evolution equation. Here we derive the evolution equation satisfied by the six point correlator of Wilson lines which appears in di-hadron angular correlations in proton-nucleus collisions at high energy.

In this work, we present the study of emissions of light fragments produced in interactions of 160 GeV muons with emulsion nuclei. A total of 820 interactions with emulsion nuclei were collected. Thickness, coordinate and range of each track were measured. Charges of emitted fragments were identified and the corresponding energies were calculated. Multiplicity, total particle production cross-sections and angular distribution of particles (P, He, Li, Be and B) were presented. Forward–backward–angular correlations were measured for the emitted alpha particles. Short and long range correlation among pairs of Alfa particles were observed at specific angular intervals. The experimental data and the results of the angular correlation were used to find the probable mechanism of producing alpha particles and to reveal the dynamic characteristics of the reactions.

We consider the next-to-leading order (NLO) calculation of single inclusive particle production at forward rapidities in proton-nucleus collisions and in the framework of the Color Glass Condensate (CGC). We focus on the quark channel and the corrections associated with the impact factor. In the first step of the evolution the kinematics of the emitted gluon is kept exactly (and not in the eikonal approximation), but such a treatment which includes NLO corrections is not explicitly separated from the high energy evolution. Thus, in this newly established “factorization scheme”, there is no “rapidity subtraction”. The latter suffers from fine tuning issues and eventually leads to an unphysical (negative) cross section. On the contrary, our reorganization of the perturbation theory leads by definition to a well-defined cross section and the numerical evaluation of the NLO correction is shown to have the correct size.
