An interpretation of saturation phenomena as Glauber-Gribov multiple parton scatterings

We compare two formalism that describe minijet production in pA and AA collisions: pQCD supplemented by Glauber-Gribov multiple semihard parton scatterings (pQCD+Glauber), and the Colour Glass Condensate (CGC). We argue that in a suitable limit they are equivalent to each other, the PQCD+Glauber model being more accurate from a numerical point of view. Finally, we analyze RHIC data on Au-Au integrated charged multiplicities in the pQCD+Glauber framework, and conclude that at least at central rapidity there is no sign of gluon saturation
