Horowitz and Kovchegov have derived a $k_T$-factorization formula for particle production at small $x$ which includes running coupling corrections. We perform a first numerical analysis to confront the theory with data on the energy and centrality dependence of particle multiplicities at midrapidity in high-energy p+A (and A+A) collisions. Moreover, we point out a strikingly different dependence of the multiplicity per participant on $N_text{part}$ in p+Pb vs. Pb+Pb collisions at LHC energies, and argue that the observed behavior follows rather naturally from the convolution of the gluon distributions of an asymmetric vs. symmetric projectile and target.

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.
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.
The perturbative QCD predicts that the growth of the gluon density at small-$x$ (high energies) should saturate, forming a Color Glass Condensate (CGC), which is described in mean field approximation by the Balitsky-Kovchegov (BK) equation. Recently,
the next-to-leading order corrections for the BK equation were derived and a global fit of the inclusive $ep$ HERA data was performed, resulting in a parameterization for the forward scattering amplitude. In this paper we compare this parameterization with the predictions of other phenomenological models and investigate the saturation physics in diffractive deep inelastic electron-proton scattering and in the forward hadron production in $pp$ collisions. Our results demonstrate that the running coupling BK solution is able to describe these observables.
In this contribution we discuss the inclusive production of jets in central regions of rapidity in the context of $k_T$-factorization at next-to-leading order (NLO). We work in the Regge limit of QCD and use the NLO BFKL results. A jet cone definitio
n is proposed together with a phase-space separation into multi-Regge and quasi-multi-Regge kinematics. We discuss scattering of highly virtual photons, with a symmetric energy scale to separate the impact factors from the gluon Greens function, and hadron-hadron collisions, with a non-symmetric scale choice.
This document summarizes thoughts on opportunities from high-energy nuclear collisions.
