    FYI
    I do not think the paper is available yet, but should be so in about a week.

    > ABSTRACT:
    >
    > Identified $\pi^{+/-}$, $K^{+/-}$, $p$ and
    > $\overline{p}$ transverse momentum spectra at mid-rapidity in
    > $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$~=~130~GeV Au-Au collisions were measured by the PHENIX
    > experiment at RHIC as a function of collision centrality.
    > Average transverse momenta increase with the number of participating
    > nucleons in a similar way for all particle species.
    > The multiplicity densities scale faster than the number of
    > participating nucleons. Kaon and nucleon yields per participant increase
    > faster than the pion yields. In central collisions at high transverse
    momenta
    > ($p_T \simge 2$~GeV/c), anti-proton and proton yields are comparable to
    the
    > pion yields.
