Overview
-
1. Introduction:
- Review of QCD properties (confinement, chiral symm., vacuum)
- High-energy heavy-ion physics topics: QCD phase diagram, quark- hadron phase transition, small-x physics
-
2. PHENIX experiment @ RHIC:
- Setup Run 1: Au+Au @130 GeV. Run-2: Au+Au, p+p @ 200 GeV
-
3. Results I: Global observables
- Energy density, particle multiplicity, net baryon density.
-
4. Results II: High pT probes
- Suppression of high pT hadron spectra
- Hadron composition at high pT
- Azimuthal correlations: collective elliptic flow and jet-like signals
-
5. Results III: Heavy-flavor probes
- Single electrons (open charm)
- First results on J/
