Saturation Correction to Projectile -- some O(g5) results within LCPT
Abstract
We revisited the first saturation correction to projectile in nucleus-nucleus collisions Chirilli:2015tea within diagrammatic light cone perturbation theory (LCPT). To get an analytic expression for the saturation correction in projectile authors in Chirilli:2015tea calculated complete O(g3) amplitudes, where the main results are given in transverse coordinate space. However to find the complete first saturation correction in the projectile, one needs to calculate both O(g3) and O(g5) gluon production amplitudes. We here present a detailed calculation of a sample graph at O(g5) in diagrammatic light cone perturbation theory.
