The PHENIX experiment has measured {\piz}s in Au+Au collisions at sqrt(s_{NN}) = 200 GeV, with good statistics for transverse momentum, pT, up to 20 GeV/c. A fivefold suppression is found, which is essentially constant for 5<pT<20 GeV/c.…

One of the most active areas of investigation in relativistic heavy-ion collisions is the study of the jet quenching phenomenon whereby hard partons lose their energy as they traverse the hot, dense matter created in such collisions. Strong…
In 2001, PHENIX measured particle correlations of identical charged pions and kaons at mid-rapidity in Au-Au collisions at sqrt(s_NN)=200GeV. Bertsch-Pratt radius parameters of pion pairs are studied for 9 kT regions from 0.2 to 2.0 GeV/c…
