Abstract
An introduction to the PHENIX detector and to the PHENIX physics program is presented. The PHENIX physics results presented here are those from the the first RHIC (Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider) run with Au+Au collisions at SNN = 130 GeV. A brief overview of the PHENIX detector is provided. The systematic variation with centrality of charged particle multiplicity, transverse energy, identified particle spectra and yield ratios, production of charged hadrons and π0’s at high transverse momenta are reported, together with first results on charm production at RHIC.
