With the measurement of several observables at SPS energies that demonstrate non-monotonic behavior as a function of centrality and $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$, there is growing interest in pursuing a scan of relativistic heavy ion collisions at low…
Heavy quarkonia are observed to be suppressed in relativistic heavy ion collisions relative to their production in p+p collisions scaled by the number of binary collisions. In order to determine if this suppression is related to color…
Electro-magnetic probes such as dileptons and photons are strong probes to investigate the thermodynamical state of the early stages of collisions since they leave the system unscathed. The PHENIX experiment has measured both photons and…
