Description

The distribution of quarks and gluons produced in the initial stages of nuclear collisions, known as the initial condition for the Quark-Gluon Plasma formation, is the fundamental building block of heavy ion theory. I will present the scattering amplitude, beyond the leading order, of the classical gluon produced in heavy ion collisions. The result is obtained in the framework of saturation physics and Wilson lines formalism.
