Geometrical scaling of prompt photons in heavy ion collisions

We discuss geometrical scaling (GS) for the prompt (direct) photons produced in heavy ion collisions. To this end we first introduce the concept of GS and illustrate its emergence on the example of charged particles. Next, we analyse direct photon data from RHIC and from the LHC. We show that thedat...
