چکیده

We report on the first measurement of Mutual Coulomb Dissociation in heavy ion collisions. We employ forward calorimeters to measure neutron multiplicity at beam rapidity in peripheral collisions. The cross-section for simultaneous electromagnetic breakup of Au nuclei at √ sNN = 130 GeV is σMCD = 3.67 ± 0.25 barns in good agreement with calculations.

We present the directed flow measurement (v 1) from Au+Au collisions at √ s NN = 62 GeV. Over the pseudorapidity range we have studied, which covers η from −1.2 to 1.2 and 2.4 < |η| < 4, v 1 is found increasing monotonously with pseudorapidity in all centralities. No " v 1 wiggle " is observed at midrapidity as predicted by various theoretical models. Elliptic flow (v 2) from moderate high p t ...

The PHENIX detector at RHIC measured high p T identified hadron ratios in √ s N N = 200 GeV Au+Au collisions. Within the current systematic and statistical errors, p/p ratios that are measured up to 3.8 GeV/c are almost independent of both p T and centrality. The baryon to meson ratio is measured through p/π and p/π ratios up to 3.8 GeV/c, showing they are strongly centrality dependent.

This paper presents results of elliptic flow measurements at moderate high transverse momentum in Au+Au collisions using the STAR detector at RHIC. Sizable v 2 is found up to 7 GeV/c in transverse momentum. Non-flow effects are discussed comparing correlations in p+p collisions and Au+Au collisions. v 2 from two-, four-and six-particle cumulant are shown and discussed.

Negatively charged hadron (h −) production in Au+Au collisions at BNL-RHIC is studied with the STAR experiment. Results are presented on h − multiplicity, pseudorapidity and transverse momentum distributions at √ s N N = 130 GeV.
