Abstract: (Elsevier)
We study the influence and interplay of initial state and final state effects in the dynamics of small systems, focusing on azimuthal correlations at different multiplicities. To this end we introduce a new model, matching the classical Yang-Mills dynamics of pre-equilibrium gluon fields (IP-GLASMA) to a perturbative QCD based parton cascade for the final state evolution (BAMPS) on an event-by-event basis. Depending on multiplicity of the event, we see transverse momentum dependent signatures of the initial, but also the final state in azimuthal correlation observables, such as v 2 {2 PC }( p T ). In low-multiplicity events, initial state correlations dominate for transverse momenta p T > 2 GeV, whereas in high-multiplicity events and at low momenta final state interactions dominate and initial state correlations strongly affect v 2 {2 PC }( p T ) for p T > 2 GeV as well as the p T integrated v 2 {2 PC }. Nearly half of the final pT integrated v 2 {2 PC } is contributed by the initial state in low-multiplicity events, whereas in high-multiplicity the share is much less. Based on Ref. [M. Greif, C. Greiner, B. Schenke, S. Schlichting, Z. Xu, Phys. Rev. D96 (9) (2017) 091504], we are now able to carry out a systematic multiplicity scan, probing the dynamics on the border of initial state dominated to final state dominated – but not yet hydrodynamic regime.Note:
