- Key Observations
- Jets are suppressed in central Au Au collisions
- Suppression is flat up to pt 10 GeV/c
- Absence of suppression in dAu
- Strong elliptic flow
- Scaling of v2 with eccentricity shows that a high
degree of collectivity builds up at a very early
stage of collision evidence for early
thermalization - Data described by ideal hydrodynamic models?
fluid description of matter applies. - Energy density allows for a non-hadronic state of
matter - Energy density estimates from measurements of
dN/dy are well in excess of the 1 GeV/fm3
lattice QCD prediction for the energy density
needed to form a deconfined phase.

32RHIC Detector Status and Upgrades
o All instrumentation is in place for the
planned measurements on spin dependent gluon
distributions and transverse spin. o
W-physics (flavor separation of quark and
anti-quark polarizations) requires upgrades in
PHENIX (muon trigger, funded by NSF and JSPS)
and STAR (forward tracking, grant proposal to
DOE in preparation). o In PHENIX a central
silicon tracking upgrade and a forward
tungsten silicon calorimeter upgrade will
significantly enhance capabilities for jet and
photon-jet physics. o A RHIC luminosity upgrade
(RHIC II) for heavy ions with electron cooling
will gain a factor 3-5 (beyond design) in
luminosity from 2012.

48 Summary
RHIC and its experiments are the worlds first
facility capable of colliding high energy
polarized protons and heavy ions. Collider and
Experiments are complete and first
high statistics polarized proton runs took place
in 2005 and 2006. Hadron Collisions at RHIC
provide a powerful experimental tool to study
the structure of the nucleon. We are at the
beginning of a broad new program on spin
dependent nucleon substructure and phenomena in
nucleon structure at low x.
