Description

Origin of particle correlations in pA and pp collisions will be discussed from the initial state point of view. The light cone wave function of a fast hadron
has built-in QCD-induced intrinsic correlations among its Fock components. These correlations get imprinted as correlated flows of particles produced in a collision. As an example, Bose enhancement of gluons in the wave functions leads to a ridge-like correlation in two-particle inclusive cross section. I will present most recent develpomnets of these ideas, which include short-range correlations induced by Pauli blocking of quarks in the wave function, the origin of odd harmonics (v_3), etc.
