The suppression of hadrons with large transverse momentum ($p_{\rm T}$) in central Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}}$ = 200 GeV compared to a binary scaled p+p reference is one of the major discoveries at RHIC. To understand the nature…
We are constructing a Silicon Vertex Tracker detector (VTX) for the PHENIX experiment at RHIC. Our main motivation is to enable measurements of heavy flavor production (charm and beauty) in p+p, p+d and A+A collisions. Such data will…
This article reviews recent jet physics results from HERA.
This article consists of two parts. The first section presents the highlights on the goals of neutrino physics, status of the current neutrino experiments and future directions and program. The second section describes the theme, program…
Measurement of jet fragmentation property in p + p collisions provides a crucial baseline for the study of a possible, modified fragmentation behavior at the presence of the quark-gluon plasma. We describe the first measurement of jet…
Finalized PHENIX results are presented on $J/\psi$ modification from the RHIC system-size scan, which include $p$+Al, $p$+Au, and $^{3}$He+Au (small systems) collisions as well as $AA$ (large systems) collisions at forward and backward…
sPHENIX is a major upgrade proposed for the PHENIX detector. As part of this proposal, a forward spectrometer to cover the rapidity range 1<eta<4 is in a conceptual stage to complement the detectors in the central region. The forward…
Two-particle azimuthal correlations have been shown to be a powerful probe for extracting novel features of the interaction between hard scattered partons and the medium produced in Au+Au collisions at RHIC. At intermediate $p_T$, 2-5GeV/c,…

The present status and and future plans of the physics program of Central Exclusive Production at RHIC are described.
After 15 years of heavy-ion collision experiments at the AGS and SPS, the recent turn-on of RHIC has initiated a new stage of quark-gluon plasma studies. I review the evidence for deconfined quark-gluon matter at SPS energies and the recent…
The production of the low-mass dielectrons is considered to be a powerful tool to study the properties of the hot and dense matter created in the ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions. We present the preliminary results on the first…
One of the fundamental goals of the PHENIX experiment is to understand the structure of cold nuclear matter, since this serves as the initial state for heavy-ion collisions. Knowing the initial state is vital for interpreting measurements…
For the session on future facilities at DIS09 discussions were organized on DIS related measurements that can be expected in the near and medium - or perhaps far - future, including plans from JLab, CERN and FNAL fixed target experiments,…
An overview of the recent results obtained by the ALICE Collaboration from the analysis of the pp, p-Pb and Pb-Pb data samples collected during LHC run I and the first half of run II is presented.
Preliminary results of a selected few recent experiments at JLab are presented.
Photons are emitted at all stages of relativistic heavy-ion collisions and do not interact with the medium strongly. With access to the versatility of RHIC, measurements of low momentum direct photons are made possible across different…
Silicon stripixel sensors which were developed at BNL will be installed as part of the RHIC-PHENIX silicon vertex tracker (VTX). RHIC II operations provide luminosity up to 2x10^32 /cm2/s so the silicon stripixel sensors will be exposed to…
Comparing dilepton data from Au+Au to p+p collisions at RHIC energies PHENIX revealed two striking features: (i) a large excess of the dilepton yield at low mass and low pT in central Au+Au and (ii) a significant enhancement of direct real…
Some important recent results on subnuclear diffractive phenomena obtained at HERA are reviewed and new issues in nucleon tomography are discussed.
