Results on Identified Hadrons from the PHENIX Experiment at RHIC

چکیده
Recent results on identified hadrons from the PHENIX experiment in Au+Au collisions at mid-rapidity at √ sNN = 200 GeV are presented. The centrality dependence of transverse momentum distributions and particle ratios for identified charged hadrons are studied. The transverse flow velocity and freeze-out temperature are extracted from pT spectra within the framework of a hydrodynamic collective flow model. Two-particle HBT correlations for charged pions are measured in different centrality selections for a broad range of transverse momentum of the pair. Results on elliptic flow measurements with respect to the reaction plane for identified particles are also presented.

Measurement 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 کاملResults on High p T Particle Production from the PHENIX Experiment at RHIC
Transverse momentum (p T) spectra of neutral pions and charged hadrons measured in Au+Au and d+Au collisions at √ s NN = 200 GeV by the PHENIX experiment at RHIC are compared to p+p reference spectra at the same √ s NN. In central Au+Au collisions a factor 4 − 5 suppression for neutral pions and charged hadrons with p T > 5 GeV/c is found relative to the p+p reference scaled by the nuclear over...
متن کاملResults on Identified Charged Hadrons from the PHENIX Experiment at RHIC
The physics motivation of the ultra-relativistic heavy-ion program at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) is to study nuclear matter at extremely high temperature and energy density with the hope to reach a new form of matter called the quark gluon plasma (QGP). Among the various probes of the QGP state, hadrons carry important information about the collision dynamics along with the spat...
متن کاملDiagnosing Energy Loss: PHENIX Results on High-pT Hadron Spectra
Measurements of inclusive spectra of hadrons at large transverse momentum over a broad range of energy in different collision systems have been performed with the PHENIX experiment at RHIC. The data allow to study the energy and system size dependence of the suppression observed in RAA of high-pT hadrons at √ sNN= 200 GeV. Due to the large energy range from √ sNN= 22 GeV to 200 GeV, the results...
