We report the beam energy and collision centrality dependence of fifth sixth order cumulants (C5, C6) factorial (κ5, κ6) net-proton proton number distributions, from center-of-mass (√sNN) 3 GeV to 200 Au+Au collisions at RHIC. Cumulant ratios (taken as proxy for net-baryon) distributions generally follow hierarchy expected QCD thermodynamics, except case GeV. The measured values C6/C2 0%–40% show progressively negative trend with decreasing energy, while it is positive lowest studied. These...

In relativistic heavy-ion collisions, a global spin polarization, $P_\mathrm{H}$, of $\Lambda$ and $\bar{\Lambda}$ hyperons along the direction system angular momentum was discovered measured across broad range collision energies demonstrated trend increasing $P_\mathrm{H}$ with decreasing $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}}$. A splitting between polarization may be possible due to their different magnetic moments in late-stage field sustained by quark-gluon plasma which is formed collision. The results...

Remarkably, inferred nuclear modification factor mid-rapidity (U+U) reaches about 24 (52) for $p_{T} 0.05 GeV/c 60-80$\%$ collision centrality class. This noteworthy enhancement cannot be explained by accompanied cold hot medium effects. In addition, $dN/dt$ distribution $p_{T}$ range is presented time....
