Directed flow from C-odd gluon correlations at small x

Abstract It is shown that odd harmonic azimuthal correlations, including the directed flow v 1, in forward two-particle production in peripheral proton-nucleus (pA) collisions can arise simply from the radial nuclear profile of a large nucleus. This requires consideration of the C-odd part of the gl...
