Abstract

New measurements of short-range and long-range two-particle correlations, azimuthal anisotropy, and event-by-event fluctuations from the STAR experiment for sqrtsNN= 130 and 200 GeV Au+Au collisions are summarized. Striking evidence is presented for large, non-statistical fluctuations in mean transverse momentum. Descriptions of the data in terms of phenomenological source function models are also presented.
