FYI I send the announchment iof a new Phenix paper.
Fl;emming
Subject: Announcement of new PHENIX PRL submission
> Dear Colleagues:
>
> I am very pleased to announce that on Wednesday, September 5th, PHENIX
> will submit a manuscript to Physical Review Letters titled
>
> Suppression of Hadrons with Large Transverse Momentum
> in Central Au+Au Collisions at $\sqrt{s_{_{NN}}}$~=~130~GeV
>
> (the abstract is enclosed below).
>
> The results are very similar to those presented at QM01 in January of
> this year. A new analysis of the pi0 yield as measured in our PbGl
> calorimeter is now available; the spectrum agrees well with that
> from the PbSc calorimeter. Both results are reported in the letter,
> along with data for charged tracks. We have also improved our
> understanding of the systematic errors in these measurements since
> the preliminary data were first presented.
>
> Because the analysis has been extended in this fashion, we feel that
> it would be appropriate to schedule a seminar, to be presented
> by BNL's Saskia Mioduszewski. The only date that appears to be
> available before submission is Friday, August 31st. We will
> let you know as soon as this has been formally scheduled.
>
> I will be in Erice from tomorrow, the 29th until Sep. 2nd. As a result,
> I will not be available to answer any questions you might have regarding
> this, hence the CC's the Deputy Spokesperson, Glenn Young. I have also
> CC-ed Sam Aronson and Brant Johnson as the local BNL contacts.

> Best regards,

> P.S. Nevis is currently having e-mail problems, but my system manager
> assures me this message will be sent when contact to BNL is restored.

> Transverse momentum spectra for charged hadrons and for
> neutral pions in the range 1~GeV/c~$< p_T <$~5~GeV/c have
> been measured by the PHENIX experiment at RHIC in Au+Au
> collisions at $\sqrt{s_{_{NN}}}=130$~GeV. At high $p_T$
> the spectra from peripheral nuclear collisions are consistent
> with the naive expectation of scaling the spectra from p+p
> collisions by the average number of binary nucleon-
> nucleon collisions. The spectra from central collisions
> are significantly suppressed when compared to the binary-
> scaled p+p expectation, and also when compared to similarly
> binary-scaled peripheral collisions, indicating a novel
> nuclear effect in central nuclear collisions at RHIC energies.
