Role of Gribov’s inelastic screening in the nucleus-nucleus interactions at high energies

It is found that the inclusion of Gribov’s inelastic screening within the quasieikonal approach generalized to the case of nucleus-nucleus interactions leads to a significant decrease ($\sim18\%$) in the number of “wounded” nucleons and in the multiplicity of intranuclear collisions in central interactions between nuclei. This can significantly affect experimental estimates of the degree of “quenching” of jets and hydrodynamic calculations of the behavior of the quark-gluon plasma appearing in the indicated interactions.
