Overview of the results from the BRAHMS experiment

  • Published:
Acta Physica Hungarica Series A, Heavy Ion Physics

Abstract

An overview of the most important experimental results obtained in the first three running years with the BRAHMS experiment from Brookhaven National Laboratory (USA) is presented. The design of the experiment permits to measure the interesting physical quantities in a large ranges of rapidity and transverse momentum. Therefore, properties of hadron production vs, rapidity and transverse momenta are presented.
