Quenching of Light Hadron Spectra in $p$-A Collisions from Fully Coherent Energy Loss
Résumé
We single out the role of fully coherent induced gluon radiation on light hadron production in p-A collisions. The effect has an interesting color structure, as the induced radiation depends on the global color charge of the partonic subprocess final state. Baseline predictions for light hadron nuclear suppression in p-Pb collisions at the LHC are provided, taking into account only the effect of fully coherent energy loss, which proves of the same order of magnitude as gluon shadowing or saturation. This underlines the need to include fully coherent energy loss in phenomenological studies of hadron production in p-A collisions.
