We present a review of parton saturation/Color Glass Condensate physics in the context of
deuteron–gold (d+ Au) collisions at RHIC. Color Glass Condensate physics is a universal …

We review hadron formation from a deconfined quark-gluon plasma (QGP) via coalescence
or recombination of quarks and gluons. We discuss the abundant experimental evidence for …

We calculate diffusion and hadronization of heavy quarks in high-energy heavy-ion
collisions, implementing the notion of a strongly coupled quark-gluon plasma in both micro …

Measurements of the production of forward π 0 mesons from p+ p and d+ Au collisions at s
NN= 200 GeV are reported. The p+ p yield generally agrees with next-to-leading order …

We present results for the measurement of ϕ meson production via its charged kaon decay
channel ϕ→ K+ K-in Au+ Au collisions at s NN= 62. 4, 130, and 200 GeV, and in p+ p and …

This book is designed for advanced undergraduate and graduate students in high energy
heavy-ion physics. It is relevant for students who will work on topics being explored at RHIC …

Identified mid-rapidity particle spectra of π±, K±, and p (p¯) from 200 GeV p+ p and d+ Au
collisions are reported. A time-of-flight detector based on multi-gap resistive plate chamber …

Back-to-back hadron pair yields in d+ Au and p+ p collisions at s NN= 200 GeV were
measured with the PHENIX detector at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider. Rapidity …

The STAR Collaboration reports measurements of back-to-back azimuthal correlations of di-
π 0 s produced at forward pseudorapidities (2.6< η< 4.0) in p+ p, p+ Al, and p+ Au collisions …

▪ Abstract We present an overview of the scientific opportunities that would be offered by a
high-energy electron-ion collider. We discuss the relevant physics of polarized and …
