The subtle differences between positive and negative pion spectra can used be used to study the nature of the nuclear interaction region in heavy-ion collisions. Several large acceptance heavy ion experiments at facilities ranging from SIS,…
In June 2005 the PHOBOS Collaboration completed data taking at RHIC. In five years of operation PHOBOS recorded information for Au+Au at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 19.6, 62.4, 130, and 200 GeV, Cu+Cu at 22.4, 62.4 and 200 GeV, d+Au at 201 GeV, and…
The results of mid-rapidity ($0 < y < 0.8$) neutral pion spectra over an extended transverse momentum range ($1 < p_T < 12$ GeV/$c$) in $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 200 GeV Au+Au collisions, measured by the STAR experiment, are presented. The neutral…
Two-particle azimuthal correlations of high-pT hadrons can serve as a probe of interactions of partons with the dense medium produced in high-energy heavy-ion collisions. First NA49 results on such correlations are presented for central and…
Femtoscopic measurements of two-pion Bose--Einstein correlations have established that particle-emitting sources in heavy-ion collisions are well described by L\'evy $\alpha$-stable distributions, motivating systematic studies across a wide…
We use the string melting version of a multi-phase transport (AMPT) model to study Cu+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=200$ GeV. The rapidity distributions of identified hadrons show asymmetric dependences on rapidity. In addition, elliptic…

A three-dimensional (3D) correlation function obtained from mid-rapidity, low pT pion pairs in central Au+Au collisions at sqrt(s_NN)=200 GeV is studied. The extracted model-independent source function indicates a long range tail in the…
Measurements of transverse-momentum p_T spectra of neutral pions in Au+Au and d+Au collisions at sqrt{s_NN}=200 GeV and 62.4 GeV by the PHENIX experiment at RHIC in comparison to p+p reference spectra at the same sqrt{s_NN} are presented.…

Bose-Einstein correlations of identically charged pion pairs were measured by the PHENIX experiment at mid-rapidity in Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}}$ = 200 GeV. The Bertsch-Pratt radius parameters were determined as a function of…
New results from the 2010 RHIC low energy program show a substantial suppression of neutral pions in central Au+Au collisions at both sqrt{s_NN}=39 and 62.4 GeV c.m.s. energies. At high pT the 62.4 GeV and 200 GeV data follow the same…
