Near-threshold production of the multi-strange hyperon
P. Chung, N. N. Ajitanand, J. M. Alexander +51
The yield for the multi-strange hyperon has been measured in 6 AGeV Au+Au collisions via reconstruction of its decay products and , the latter also being reconst…
The STAR Time Projection Chamber: A Unique Tool for Studying High Multiplicity Events at RHIC
M. Anderson, J. Berkovitz, W. Betts +45
The STAR Time Projection Chamber (TPC) is used to record collisions at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC). The TPC is the central element in a suite of detectors that surro…
Comparison of Source Images for protons, 's and 's in 6 AGeV Au+Au collisions
P. Chung, N. N. Ajitanand, J. M. Alexander +49
Source images are extracted from two-particle correlations constructed from strange and non-strange hadrons produced in 6 AGeV Au + Au collisions. Very different source images resu…
Centrality dependence of Pi- Production and Stopping in p-A Collisions at 18 GeV/c
I. Chemakin, V. Cianciolo, B. A. Cole +27
First results are presented from BNL experiment E910 on pion production and stopping in proton-Be, Cu, and Au collisions at a beam momentum of 18 GeV/c. We characterize the central…
The Evolution of Nuclear Multifragmentation in the Temperature-Density Plane
P. G. Warren, S. Albergo, J. M. Alexander +48
The mean transverse kinetic energies of the fragments formed in the interaction of 1 A GeV Au+C have been determined. An energy balance argument indicates the presence of a collect…
