Abstract

The combination of the ionization energy loss (dE/dx) from Time Projection Chamber (TPC) at 8% resolution and multi-gap resistive plate chamber time-of-flight (TOF) at 85ps provides powerful particle identification. We present spectra of identified charged pions from transverse momentum pT0.2 GeV/c to ~7-8 GeV/c in Au+Au collisions at s_NN=62.4 GeV. Physics implications will be discussed.
