Results from the PHOBOS experiment at RHIC
PHOBOS is one of the four experiments at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider measuring p + p, d + Au, and Au + Au collisions over a broad range of energies. PHOBOS is a silicon-pad based detector with a 4π multiplicity detector and a high resolution mid-rapidity spectrometer, along with other detect...

Summary: | PHOBOS is one of the four experiments at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider measuring
p + p, d + Au, and
Au + Au collisions over a broad range of energies. PHOBOS is a silicon-pad based detector with a 4π multiplicity detector and a high resolution mid-rapidity spectrometer, along with other detectors (time-of-flight walls, proton and zero degree calorimeters). PHOBOS is able to measure particles at low transverse momentum, spectra, flow, particle ratios, and multiplicity over a large region of phase space. A comparison of results for
Au + Au and
d + Au collisions at
√S
NN = 220GeV
will be discussed. |
