• Proton-nucleus collisions are
studied to access cold
nuclear matter effects and
assess a baseline for heavyion studies
• At RHIC d-Au collisions, a
modification of the away side
is seen in mid-forward
correlations for central
collisions (PRL 107 (2011) 172301)
• CMS has observed a near
side ridge in high-multiplicity
pp and p-Pb collisions

Two-Particle Correlations
• Correlation between a trigger and an associated
particle in certain pT intervals (pT,assoc < pT,trig)

• Rapidity shift of 0.465 in p direction
• Quantities given here in the lab system

Event Classes
• Centrality in "heavy-ion terms" of impact parameter is not
used  separate, non-trivial, topic in p-A collisions
• We define four multiplicity event classes in multiplicity
ranges with a forward scintillator detector (VZERO)
– 2.8 <  < 5.1 and -3.7 <  < -1.7
– Denoted by 0-20% (highest multiplicity), 20-40%, 40-60%,
60-100% (lowest multiplicity)

Near-side jet
( ~ 0,  ~ 0)
Away-side jet
( ~ p, elongated in )
Near-side ridge
( ~ 0, elongated in )
• The near-side long-range ridge observed by CMS in pp
and p-Pb can also be seen with ALICE

baseline by

20-40%
40-60%
60-100%
pp
• Low multiplicity class agrees with results from pp collisions
• Increase of the yield on the near-side and away-side
towards higher event multiplicity classes

Subtraction Procedure
• Can we separate the jet and ridge components?
– No ridge seen in 60-100% and similar to pp
 what remains if we subtract 60-100%?
0-20%
60-100%
–
=
• A double ridge!

The Double Ridge
Projections to 
– Subtracting near side excess
also from away side
– Scaling 60-100% such that
no near side excess remains
|| < p/3
| - p| < p/3
Remaining 
1/Ntrig d2Nassoc/dd
• Ridges are flat in || < 2
• Slight excess on the near side
around  ~ 0
• Could be residual jet: change of
jet contribution as a function of
multiplicity (fragmentation bias)?
• Exclude || < 0.8 on near side
• Away side? Bias evaluated
and added to the systematic
uncertainty by


The Double Ridge
Projections to 
– Baseline from 0-20%
event class to be used!
• Same procedure applied
on HIJING simulated
events  no significant
modulation remains
1/Ntrig d2Nassoc/dd
• Modulation mostly of cos 2 type
• Small but significant cos 3 term
needed
• Fit allows to extract

v2 and v3 Coefficients
• v2 and v3 as a function of pT for different event classes
(each 60-100% subtracted)
• v2
– Strong increase
with pT
– Mild increase
with multiplicity
v2
v3
• v3
– Increase with pT
within large
uncertainties

Ridge Yields
• Integrating near side and away
side above baseline allows to
extract ridge yields
• Increase with trigger pT and
multiplicity
• Despite significant change
in absolute values,
remarkable agreement
of near side and away
side ridge yields
– Common underlying
physical origin for near
side and away side ridge?

Symmetric Ridge?
• What would the assumption of a
symmetric ridge give us?
• Determine near-side ridge in

• Mirror to away side and subtract

Summary
• An intriguing double ridge structure in highmultiplicity p-Pb collisions has been observed
• The ridge on near side and away side has
identical yield and is mostly symmetric (plus a v3
component) regardless of pT and multiplicity
• Qualitative agreement of the pT and multiplicity
dependence of the observed ridges with
hydrodynamic calculations and color-glass
condensate models
