Measurements of the midrapidity transverse energy distribution $d{\rm E}_T/d\eta$ are presented for $p$$+$$p$, $d$$+$Au, and Au$+$Au Collisions at $\sqrt{s_{_{NN}}}$=62.4--200 GeV. The ${\rm E}_T$ distributions are compared with the number…
Event-by-event fluctuations in the initial density distributions of the fireballs created in relativistic heavy-ion collisions lead to event-by-event fluctuations of the final anisotropic flow angles, and density inhomogeneities in the…

Quantum fluctuations plays an essential role in forming the collective flow of hadrons observed in relativistic heavy-ion collisions. Event-by-event fluctuations of the collective flow can arise from various sources, such as the…

The ring structures that appear in Au+Au collisions at collision energies $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=$ 3 -- 30 GeV are studied. The calculations are performed within the model of three-fluid dynamics. It is demonstrated that a pare of vortex rings are…
Loosely bound light nuclei are produced in abundance in heavy-ion collisions. There are two main possible models to explain their production mechanism - the thermal model and the coalescence model. The thermal model suggests that the light…
Transverse energy distributions at midrapidity have been measured by the PHENIX experiment at the BNL Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) for Au+Au, U+U, Cu+Au, Cu+Cu, He+Au, d+Au, and p+p collisions over a wide energy range from…
It is well understood that subnuclear fluctuations in the initial state of heavy-ion collisions have an important impact on the creation of long-range correlations in the transverse plane. This is also true for the creation of particle…
