The RHIC Beam Energy Scan Program: Results from the PHENIX Experiment    [PDF]

J. T. Mitchell, for the PHENIX Collaboration

The PHENIX Experiment at RHIC has conducted a beam energy scan at several collision energies in order to search for signatures of the QCD critical point and the onset of deconfinement. PHENIX has conducted measurements of transverse energy production, muliplicity fluctuations, and the skewness and kurtosis of net charge distributions. The data analyzed to date show no significant indications of the presence of the critical point.
