Shadowing of Gluons at RHIC and LHC

Abstract

We show estimates for shadowing of gluons at small values of x, appropriate to RHIC and LHC experiments using a new evolution equation which takes into account the effects of gluon recombination to all orders in gluon density. We show that there is a significant depletion in the gluon density of large nuclei.
