Absence of Suppression in Particle Production at Large Transverse Momentum in sqrt(sNN) = 200 GeV d+Au Collisions
Abstract
Transverse momentum spectra of charged hadrons with pT < 8 GeV/c and neutral pions with pT < 10 GeV/c have been measured at mid-rapidity by the PHENIX experiment at RHIC in d+Au collisions at sqrt(sNN) = 200 GeV. The measured yields are compared to those in p+p collisions at the same sqrt(sNN) scaled up by the number of underlying nucleon-nucleon collisions in d+Au. The yield ratio does not show the suppression observed in central Au+Au collisions at RHIC. Instead, there is a small enhancement in the yield of high momentum particles.
