Description

We investigate rapidity dependence of the ratio of photon and pion production cross sections in high energy proton (deuteron)-nucleus collisions at RHIC and LHC. This ratio, and its rapidity dependence can be a sensitive probe of high density QCD (Color Glass Condensate) dynamics and shed further light on the role of saturation physics at RHIC and LHC
