sPHENIX

sPHENIX is a collider detector at the RHIC facility at BNL. sPHENIX provides state-of-art capabilities for studies of the strongly interacting quark-gluon plasma using jet and heavy-flavor observables. The goal of sPHENIX is to understand the microscopic structure of the plasma and reveal how its strongly interacting nature arises from the underlying interactions of quarks and gluons described by quantum chromodynamics. The collision data were collected between 2023 to 2026

For a summary of sPHENIX physics results, see the Public Results page.
