Abstract

We present results on charged particle and transverse energy densities measured at mid-rapidity in Au-Au collisions at sqrt(sNN)=200 GeV. The mean transverse energy per charged particle is derived. The results are presented as a function of centrality, which is defined by the number of participating nucleons, and compared to results obtained in Au-Au collisions at sqrtsNN)=130 GeV. A comparison with calculations from various theoretical models is performed.
