Abstract
We consider a very large ultrarelativistic nucleus. Assuming a simple model of the nucleus and weak coupling we find a classical solution fo r the gluon field of the nucleus and construct the two-dimensional col or charge density for McLerran-Venugopalan model out of it. We prove t hat the density of states distribution, as a function of color charge density, is Gaussian, confirming the assumption made by McLerran and V enugopalan.
