Measurements of Hard-Scattering by PHENIX at RHIC
arXiv:0707.1679 · doi:10.1016/j.nuclphysbps.2007.11.101
Abstract
Hard-scattering in p-p collisions was discovered in 1972 at the CERN-ISR, the first hadron collider. Techniques were developed and several hard-processes were discovered which form the basis for many of the measurements made in p-p and Au+Au collisions at RHIC. Recent measurements of hard-scattering and related reactions by the PHENIX experiment at RHIC are presented in this context.
