PHENIX presents a simultaneous measurement of the production direct γ and π0 in d+Au collisions at sNN=200 GeV over pT range 7.5 to 18 GeV/c for different event samples selected by activity, i.e., charged-particle multiplicity detected forward rapidity. Direct-photon yields are used empirically estimate contribution hard-scattering processes samples. Using this estimate, average nuclear-modification factor, RdAu,EXPπ0, is 0.925±0.023(stat)±0.15(scale), consistent with unity minimum-bias (MB)...
The future opportunities for high-density QCD studies with ion and proton beams at the LHC are presented. Four major scientific goals identified: characterisation of macroscopic long wavelength Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) properties unprecedented precision, investigation microscopic parton dynamics underlying QGP properties, development a unified picture particle production from small (pp) to large (nucleus--nucleus) systems, exploration densities in nuclei broad ($x$, $Q^2$) kinematic range...
Differential elliptic flow (${v}_{2}$) for $\ensuremath{\phi}$ mesons and (anti)deuterons $(\overline{d})d$ is measured $\mathrm{Au}+\mathrm{Au}$ collisions at $\sqrt{{s}_{NN}}=200\text{ }\text{ }\mathrm{GeV}$. The ${v}_{2}$ follows the trend of lighter ${\ensuremath{\pi}}^{\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}}$ ${K}^{\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}}$ mesons, suggesting that ordinary hadrons interacting with standard hadronic cross sections are not primary driver development. values suggest additive...
