We argue that the emission of hadrons with transverse momentum up to about 5 G e V/c in
central relativistic heavy ion collisions is dominated by recombination, rather than …

The centrality dependence of transverse momentum distributions and yields for π±, K±, p,
and p¯ in Au+ Au collisions at s NN= 200 GeV at midrapidity are measured by the PHENIX …

We discuss hadron production in heavy ion collisions at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider
(RHIC). We argue that hadrons at transverse momenta PT< 5 GeV are formed by …

At very high energies or small values of Bjorken x, the density of partons, per unit transverse
area, in hadronic wavefunctions becomes very large leading to a saturation of partonic …

Using a covariant coalescence model, we study hadron production in relativistic heavy ion
collisions from both soft partons in the quark-gluon plasma and hard partons in minijets …

Measurements of midrapidity charged-particle multiplicity distributions, d N ch/d η, and
midrapidity transverse-energy distributions, d ET/d η, are presented for a variety of collision …

Relativistic hydrodynamics has been extensively applied to high energy heavy-ion
collisions. We review hydrodynamic calculations for Au+ Au collisions at RHIC energies and …

Recent experimental data have established some of the basic features of multiple
interactions in hadron-hadron collisions. The emphasis is therefore now shifting, to one of …

We derive a simple analytical scaling function which embodies the predictions of high
density QCD on the energy, centrality, rapidity, and atomic number dependences of hadron …

Using an analytical parametrization of hadronic freeze-out in relativistic heavy ion collisions,
we present a detailed study of the connections between features of the freeze-out …
