Description

The origin of the structure of azimuthal correlations in small collision systems, such as proton–proton and proton–nucleus collisions, is still not fully understood. In these systems, azimuthal correlations tend to extend far in rapidity. These so-called unequal rapidity correlations must therefore originate early in the collision. In the context of the Colour Glass Condensate effective field theory, correlations of particles separated by large rapidities can be studied using the stochastic Langevin picture of the Jalilian-Marian–Iancu–McLerran–Weigert–Leonidov–Kovner (JIMWLK) evolution equation. By separately evolving the Wilson lines in the direct and complex conjugate amplitudes, the formalism can be used to study two-particle production at large rapidity separations. In this talk, I will present results from a numerical implementation of the resulting bilocal Langevin JIMWLK equation. I will show the effects of the fully nonlinear evolution on the unequal rapidity correlations of the produced particles.
