Abstract: (Springer)
We present general formulae to compute Wilson line correlators with the Color Glass Condensate described by the McLerran-Venugopalan model. We explicitly construct a complete and non-orthogonal set of color-singlet bases and write matrix elements down, so that the exponential of the matrix leads to the Wilson line correlators. We further develop a systematic perturbative expansion of dipole Wilson line correlators in terms of 1/Nc_{c} where Nc_{c} is the color number. As a phenomenological application we calculate the flow harmonics vn_{n} {m} in the dipole model and discuss the Nc_{c} scaling.
