Scaling Properties of Fluctuation Results from the PHENIX Experiment at RHIC
نویسنده
چکیده
The PHENIX Experiment at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider has made measurements of event-by-event fluctuations in the charged particle multiplicity as a function of collision energy, centrality, collision species, and transverse momentum in several heavy ion collision systems. It is observed that the fluctuations in terms of σ/μ exhibit a universal power-law scaling as a function of Nparticipants that is independent of the transverse momentum range of the measurement.

PHENIX Studies of the Scaling Properties of Elliptic Flow at RHIC
Recent PHENIX elliptic flow (v2) measurements for identified particles produced in Au+Au and Cu+Cu collisions at √ sNN = 200 GeV are presented and compared to other RHIC measurements. They indicate universal scaling of v2 compatible with partonic collectivity leading to the flow of light, strange and heavy quarks with a common expansion velocity field.

Measurement of leptonic and hadronic decays of ω-and φ-mesons at RHIC by PHENIX Abstract. The PHENIX experiment at RHIC measured production of the ω-and φ-mesons in p + p, d + Au and Au + Au collisions at √ s N N = 63 and 200 GeV. Particle properties were studied using hadronic and di-electron decay channels. Transverse momentum (mass) spectra measured in different decay modes are found to be i...
متن کاملMeasurement of high-pT hadrons at RHIC-PHENIX
Measurements from the RHIC experiments show a strong suppression in the yield of high-pT single hadrons and a clear reduction in strength of the di-jet signal in two-hadron azimuthal-angle correlation functions in central Au+Au collisions at RHIC. These measurements should provide direct information on the properties of the medium within which hard-scattered par-tons propagate. The PHENIX preli...
متن کاملThe overview of the spin physics at RHIC-PHENIX experiment
In Spiring 2005, RHIC successfully completed its first long data collection run with polarized proton beams. PHENIX accumulated ten fold larger statistics with higher polarization than the previous spin physics run in 2003. This contribution will introduce the RHIC-PHENIX experiment and present our recent results.

The PHENIX Experiment at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider has made measurements of event-by-event fluctuations in the net charge, the mean transverse momentum, and the charged particle multiplicity as a function of collision energy, centrality, and transverse momentum in heavy ion collisions. The results of these measurements will be reviewed and discussed.. 1. Introduction The PHENIX experi...
