High pT hadron spectra (central vs. periph.)

  • Au+Au h± and p0, |h|<0.35, compared to scaled pp reference (pT>1.0 GeV/c):

  • 4 Peripheral collisions well described

  • 6 Central colls. not described

  • (´2-3 suppression)

  • ~ 20-35% : pp interpolation

  • ~ 16-30% : data

  • ~ 11%: Ncoll scaling
