Description

We discuss the importance of initial state effects with regard to the theoretical understanding of long range azimuthal correlations observed in high-multiplicity p + p and p + A collisions at RHIC and the LHC. Starting with a brief overview of different effects, we perform a systematic comparison of initial state calculations with experimental data and briefly discuss progress towards developing a unified picture of initial state and final state effects.
