Small-x QCD studies with CMS at the LHC
Abstract
The capabilities of the CMS experiment to study the low-x parton structure and QCD evolution in the proton and the nucleus at LHC energies are presented through four different measurements, to be carried out in Pb-Pb at sqrt(sNN) = 5.5 TeV: (i) the charged hadron rapidity density dNch/dη and (ii) the ultraperipheral (photo)production of Upsilon; and in p-p at sqrt(s) = 14 TeV: (iii) inclusive forward jets and (iv) Mueller-Navelet dijets (separated by Deltaη 8).
