Overview
1. Introduction:
- High-energy heavy-ion physics topics.
- Hard scattering probes.
- PHENIX experiment at RHIC.
- Run history: Au+Au @130 GeV, 200 GeV,
- p+p @ 200 GeV, d+Au @ 200 GeV
-
2. High pT results (central Au+Au vs. p+p):
- Suppression of hadron inclusive spectra
- “Anomalous” hadron composition
- Azimuthal anisotropies: strong collective elliptic flow, disappearance of away-side dijet correlations.
3. Theory vs. data:
- QGP- and CGC- models vis-à-vis data
4. High pT results in d+Au ("control" experiment):
-
