Time-dependent observables in heavy ion collisions. Part I. Setting up the formalism
Abstract We adapt the Schwinger-Keldysh formalism to study heavy-ion collisions in perturbative QCD. Employing the formalism, we calculate the two-point gluon correlation function G 22 aμ,bν due to the lowest-order classical gluon fields in the McLerran-Venugopalan model of heavy ion collisions and...
