We report BRAHMS results from RHIC d+Au and p+p collisions at Sqrt(s_NN)=200GeV. A remarkable change in the nuclear modification factor RdAu is seen as the pseudorapidity of the detected charged hadrons changes from zero at mid-rapidity to…
Energetic quarks and gluons lose energy as they traverse the hot and dense medium created in high-energy heavy-ion collisions at the BNL Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) and the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The nuclear…
We explore the response to energetic partons of a baryon-charged medium produced in low energy heavy-ion collisions in which the partonic energy loss rate is expected to depend on both temperature and baryon chemical potential. The energy…
Recombination is a hadronization process that converts partons to hadrons at late time, but the description has no quantitative significance without some meaningful input on the parton distributions at earlier time. Thus observations of…
The problem of forward production of hadrons in heavy-ion collision at RHIC is revisited with modification of the theoretical treatment on the one hand and with the use of new data on the other. The basic formalism for hadronization remains…
We report the study of the nuclear modification factor R_{AuAu} as function of pT and pseudo-rapidity in Au+Au collisions at top RHIC energy. We find this quantity almost independent of pseudo-rapidity. We use the pbar/pi- ratio as a probe…

RHIC data on high-$p_T$ hadron production display strong suppression in a wide rapidity region, indicating strong induced energy loss for both transversally and longitudinally traveling partons. We investigate the interplay of energy loss…
