The PHENIX experiment at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider has performed a survey of momentum correlations ranging from 200 MeV/c to 7 GeV/c in sNN = 200 GeV p+p, d+Au, Au+Au, and sNN = 62 GeV Au+Au collisions. The correlations are measured separately for like-sign and unlike-sign pairs. Comparisons of the properties of the near-side peak amplitude and width as a function of centrality and transverse momentum for each collision species are presented and discussed.

The production at central rapidity of KS0, Lambda, Teta and Omega particles in Pb-Pb collisions at 158 AGeV has been measured by the NA57 experiment over a centrality range corresponding to the most central 53% of the inelastic Pb-Pb cross section. We present the rapidity distribution of each particle in the central rapidity unit. The distributions are analysed based on hydrodynamical models of the collisions.

The cumulant method is applied to study elliptic flow (v2) in Au+Au collisions at s = 200 AGeV, with the UrQMD model. We find that the four and six-particle cumulants are good measures of the real elliptic flow over a wide range of centralities except for the most central and very peripheral events. There the cumulant method is affected by the v2 fluctuations. In mid-central collisions, the four and six-particle cumulants are shown to give a good estimation of the true differential v2, especially at large transverse momentum, where the two-particle cumulant method is heavily affected by the non-flow effects.

A simple way to visualize event-by-event average pT fluctuations is by assuming that each collision has a different temperature parameter (inverse pT slope) and that the ensemble of events has a temperature distribution about the mean, less than T greater than , with standard deviation sigmaT. PHENIX characterizes the non-random fluctuation of MpT, the event-by-event average pT, by FpT, the fractional difference of the standard deviation of the data from that of a random sample obtained with mixed events. This can be related to the temperature fluctuation: FpT = sigmaMpTdata/sigmaMpTrandom - 1 ~ (less than eta greated than-1)sigmaT 2/ less thanT greated than 2. Combining this with the Gavai et al. [5] and Korus et al. [6] definitions of the specific heat per particle, a simple relationship is obtained: cv/T3 = less than eta greated than/less than Ntot greated than )Ĺ(1/FpT). FpT is measured with a fraction less than eta greated than)Ntot* of the total particles produced, a purely geometrical factor representing the fractional acceptance, ~1/33 in PHENIX. Gavai et al. [5] predict that cv/T3 = 15, which corresponds to FpT ~ 0.20% in PHENIX, which may be accessible by measurements of MpT in the range 0.2 d pT d 0.6 GeV/c. In order to test the Gavai et al. prediction that cv/T3 is reduced in a QGP compared to the ideal gas value (15 compared to 21), precision measurements of FpT in the range 0.20% for 0.2 less-than or equal to pT greater-than or equal to 0.6 GeV/c may be practical.

Content available Elliptic flow at RHIC with NeXSPheRIO
EN
Elliptic flow at RHIC is computed event-by-event with NeXSPheRIO. Reasonable agreement with experimental results on v2(h) is obtained. Various effects are studied as well: reconstruction of impact parameter direction, freeze-out temperature, equation of state (with or without crossover), emission mechanism.

Content available A survey of multiplicity fluctuations in PHENIX
EN
The PHENIX Experiment at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider has made measurements of event-by-event fluctuations in the charged particle multiplicity as a function of collision energy, centrality, collision species, and transverse momentum in heavy-ion collisions. The results of these measurements will be reviewed and discussed.
