Gluon production at high transverse momentum in the McLerran-Venugopalan model of nuclear structure functions

Year: 1995

Type: article

Abstract: We consider the production of high transverse momentum gluons in the McLerran-Venugopalan model of nuclear structure functions. We explicitly compute the high momentum component in this model. We compute the nuclear target size A dependence of the distribution of produced gluons.
