Overview of PHENIX results from the first RHIC run

Abstract: Results from the PHENIX experiment for the first RHIC run with Au-Au collisions at roots(NN) = 130 GeV are presented. The systematic variation with centrality of charged particle multiplicity, transverse energy, elliptic flow, identified particle spectra and yield ratios, and production of charged particles and pi(0)'s at high transverse momenta are presented. Results on two-pion correlations and electron spectra are also provided, along with a discussion of plans for the second run at RHIC. Disciplines Nuclea… Show more

“…. 92% respectively), the Pythia calculations are in perfect agreement with the (at that time preliminary) PHENIX data [25] for charged hadrons and for neutral pions in the case of peripheral collisions, as can be seen in Figs 6 and 7. We can thus conclude that our Pythia calculation with the correct extrapolation provides an accurate basis for the experimental comparison.…”

“…At RHIC energy √ s = 500 GeV, virtually no deviations between the dipole approach and the NLO parton model have been found for y > 0.5 [7]. This means that one can safely compare the dipole approach to future DY measurements from the two PHENIX muon arms [14].…”
