Heavy flavor and quarkonia results from the PHENIX experiment Open

K. Smith · 2024

The PHENIX experiment at RHIC has a unique large rapidity coverage (1.2 < | y | < 2.2) for heavy flavor studies in heavy-ion collisions. This kinematic region has a smaller particle density and may undergo different nuclear effects before …

Proceedings of the 58th Rencontres de Moriond on QCD 2024 Open

K. Smith · 2024

The LHCb experiment, designed for searches of new physics in beauty and charm hadron decays, has been recording data at the Large Hadron Collider since 2010. The physics program incorporates $p$$p$, $p$A, and AA collisions, ultra-periphera…

A. D. Vira, Elizabeth Mone, Emily A. Ryan, Patrick Connolly, K. Smith , et al. · 2023

Neutrons are encountered in many different fields, including condensed matter physics, space exploration, nuclear power, and healthcare. Neutrons interacting with a biological target produce secondary charged particles that are damaging to…

Recent Quarkonia Measurements in Small Systems at RHIC and LHC Energies Open

K. Smith · 2023

Heavy-ion research at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) during the first decade of data collection, approximately during the years 2000–2010, was primarily focused on the study of Au+Au collisions. The search for evidence of quark…

J/$ψ$ and $ψ$(2S) Production in Small Systems with PHENIX Open

K. Smith · 2022

The suppression of the $ψ$(2S) nuclear modification factor has been seen as a trademark signature of final state effects in large collision systems for decades. In small systems, deviations of the nuclear modification from unity had been a…
