The inclusive gluon production at midrapidities is described in the Color Glass Condensate formalism using the $k_T$ - factorization formula, which was derived at fixed coupling constant considering the scattering of a dilute system of partons with a dense one. Recent analysis demonstrated that this approach provides a satisfactory description of the experimental data for the inclusive hadron production in $pp/pA/AA$ collisions. However, these studies are based on the fixed coupling $k_T$ - factorization formula, which does not take into account the running coupling corrections, which are important to set the scales present in the cross section. In this paper we consider the running coupling corrected $k_T$ - factorization formula conjectured some years ago and investigate the impact of the running coupling corrections on the observables. In particular, the pseudorapidity distributions and charged hadrons multiplicity are calculated considering $pp$, $dAu/pPb$ and $AuAu/PbPb$ collisions at RHIC and LHC energies. We compare the corrected running coupling predictions with those obtained using the original $k_T$ - factorization assuming a fixed coupling or a prescription for the inclusion of the running of the coupling. Considering the Kharzeev - Levin - Nardi unintegrated gluon distribution and a simplified model for the nuclear geometry, we demonstrate that the distinct predictions are similar for the pseudorapidity distributions in $pp/pA/AA$ collisions and for the charged hadrons multiplicity in $pp/pA$ collisions. On the other hand, the running coupling corrected $k_T$ - factorization formula predicts a smoother energy dependence for $dN/deta$ in $AA$ collisions.

The characteristics of the thermal radiation are investigated using a two - component model, with the hard component being described by the Color Glass Condensate formalism. The inclusive transverse momentum spectra of charged hadrons produced in pro
ton - proton and proton - nucleus collisions at LHC energies and large - $p_T$ are estimated using the running coupling $k_T$ - factorization formula and the solution of the Balitsky - Kovchegov equation. Our results indicate that the thermal term is necessary to describe the experimental data and that the effective thermal temperature has an energy dependence similar to the saturation scale. We demonstrate that the enhancement of the thermal temperature in $pPb$ collisions is consistent with that predicted by the saturation scale.
Starting from a Color Glass Condensate (CGC) framework, based on a running-coupling improved $k_T$-factorized formula, we calculate bulk observables in several heavy-ion collision systems. This is done in two ways: first we calculate the particle dis
tribution directly implied from the CGC model, and we compare this to the case where it is instead used as initial conditions for a hybrid hydrodynamic simulation. In this way, we can assess the effects of hydrodynamic and hadronic evolution by quantifying how much they change the results from a pure initial state approach and, therefore, to what extent initial condition models can be directly compared to experimental data. We find that entropy production in subsequent hydrodynamic evolution can increase multiplicity by as much as 50%. However, disregarding a single overall normalization factor, the centrality, energy, and system size dependence of charged hadron multiplicity is only affected at the $sim$5% level. Because of this, the parameter-free prediction for these dependencies gives reasonable agreement with experimental data whether or not hydrodynamic evolution is included. On the other hand, our model results are not compatible with the hypothesis that hydrodynamic evolution is present in large systems, but not small systems like p-Pb, in which case the dependence of multiplicity on system size would be stronger than seen experimentally. Moreover, we find that hydrodynamic evolution significantly changes the distribution of momentum, so that observables such as mean transverse momentum are very different from the initial particle production, and much closer to measured data. Finally, we find that a good agreement to anisotropic flow data cannot be achieved due to the large eccentricity generated by this model.
We study inclusive production of doubly heavy baryon at a $e^+e^-$ collider and at hadron colliders through fragmentation. We study the production by factorizing nonpertubative- and perturbative effects. In our approach the production can be thought
as a two-step process: A pair of heavy quarks can be produced perturbatively and then the pair is transformed into the baryon. The transformation is nonperturbative. Since a heavy quark moves with a small velocity in the baryon in its rest frame, we can use NRQCD to describe the transformation and perform a systematic expansion in the small velocity. At the leading order we find that the baryon can be formed from two states of the heavy-quark pair, one state is with the pair in $^3S_1$ state and in color ${bf bar 3}$, another is with the pair in $^1S_0$ state and in color ${bf 6}$. Two matrix elements are defined for the transformation from the two states, their perturbative coefficients in the contribution to the cross-section at a $e^+e^-$ collider and to the function of heavy quark fragmentation are calculated. Our approach is different than previous approaches where only the pair in $^3S_1$ state and in color ${bf bar 3}$ is taken into account. Numerical results for $e^+e^-$ colliders at the two $B$-factories and for hadronic colliders LHC and Tevatron are given.
We study the relevance of experimental data on heavy-flavor [$D^0$, $J/psi$, $Brightarrow J/psi$ and $Upsilon(1S)$ mesons] production in proton-lead collisions at the LHC to improve our knowledge of the gluon-momentum distribution inside heavy nuclei
. We observe that the nuclear effects encoded in both most recent global fits of nuclear parton densities at next-to-leading order (nCTEQ15 and EPPS16) provide a good overall description of the LHC data. We interpret this as a hint that these are the dominant ones. In turn, we perform a Bayesian-reweighting analysis for each particle data sample which shows that each of the existing heavy-quark(onium) data set clearly points --with a minimal statistical significance of 7 $sigma$-- to a shadowed gluon distribution at small $x$ in the lead. Moreover, our analysis corroborates the existence of gluon antishadowing. Overall, the inclusion of such heavy-flavor data in a global fit would significantly reduce the uncertainty on the gluon density down to $xsimeq 7times 10^{-6}$ --where no other data exist-- while keeping an agreement with the other data of the global fits. Our study accounts for the factorization-scale uncertainties which dominate for the charm(onium) sector.
We extend the numerical analysis of the energy and centrality dependence of particle multiplicities at midrapidity in high-energy p+A and A+A collisions from a running coupling $k_T$-factorization formula made in~cite{Dumitru:2018gjm} by considering
two unintegrated gluon distributions that were left out. While a good agreement with the experimental data in A+A collisions is achieved, improving the description of those observables in p+A collisions calls for a better understanding of the proton unintegrated gluon distribution at larger values of $x$ and also the use of a realistic impact parameter dependence.
