Abstract

Results from Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider Physics in 2018 and plans for the future at Brookhaven National Laboratory are presented.

Highlights

The Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) is one of the two remaining operating hadron colliders in the world, and the first and only polarized p+p collider

For p Ta > 2.0 GeV/c, all the results are consistent with qL = 0

Summary

Introduction

The Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) is one of the two remaining operating hadron colliders in the world, and the first and only polarized p+p collider. BNL is located in the center of the roughly 200 km long maximum 40 km wide island (named Long Island), and appears on the map as the white circle which is the berm containing the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC). BNL is 100 km from New York City in a region which nurtures science with Columbia University and the Bronx High School of Science indicated (Figure 1).
