Azimuthal asymmetries and the emergence of “collectivity” from multi-particle correlations in high-energy pA collisions

We show how angular asymmetries ∼cos⁡2ϕ can arise in dipole scattering at high energies. We illustrate the effects due to anisotropic fluctuations of the saturation momentum of the target with a finite correlation length in the transverse impact parameter plane, i.e. from a domain-like structure. We...
