摘要
The PHENIX experiment at the relativistic heavy ion collider (RHIC) has measured transverse energy and charged particle multiplicity at midrapidity in Au + Au collisions at center-of-mass energies root s(NN) = 19.6, 130, and 200 GeV as a function of centrality. The presented results are compared to measurements from other RHIC experiments and experiments at lower energies. The root s(NN) dependence of dE(T)/d eta and dN(ch)/d eta per pair of participants is consistent with logarithmic scaling for the most central events. The centrality dependence of dE(T)/d eta and dN(ch)/d eta is similar at all measured incident energies. At RHIC energies, the ratio of transverse energy per charged particle was found to be independent of centrality and growing slowly with root s(NN). A survey of comparisons between the data and available theoretical models is also presented.
