PHENIX plans for RHIC low energy run
Abstract
PHENIX plans for low energy running are presented. Current detector setting makes it possible to measure dielectron spectra down to sqrt(sNN)=39GeV, and photon/high pT hadron spectra down to below sub-injection energy (sqrt(sNN)=5-10GeV). The upgrade of the trigger scheme after the installation of VTX detector will enable PHENIX to fully explore the sub-injection energy regime, starting 2011.
