Abstract

In contrast to the recent prediction of high pT hadron suppression within the parton saturation model, it is shown that multiple parton scattering suffered by the projectile will enhance high pT hadron spectra in d+A collisions relative to a superposition of binary p+p collisions at RHIC. A stronger enhancement in the forward rapidity region of the projectile is also predicted, resulting in a unique rapidity asymmetry of the hadron spectra at high pT. The shape of the rapidity asymmetry should be reversed for low pT hadrons that are dominated by soft and coherent interactions which suppress hadron spectra in the projectile rapidity region. The phenomenon at the LHC energies is shown to be qualitatively different because of parton shadowing.
