I define the proton-contributor reference frame in proton nucleus (p--A) collisions as the center of mass of the system formed by the proton and the participant nucleons of the nucleus. Assuming that the rapidity distribution of produced particles is symmetric in the proton-contributor reference frame, several measurements in p-Pb collisions at sqrt(sNN)=5.02TeV can be described qualitatively....

Oral presentation
Recent results at RHIC and LHC on centrality dependence of various high pT
observables in very asymmetric collisions (p/d+A) raised a lively discussion
on the ways event-by-event geometry is determined experimentally. In other words:
are the methods based on average soft production still applicable once a truly
hard scattering occurs in a very asymmetric system? In the kinematic limit...
