RHIC STATUS AND PLANS.

Conference ·
OSTI ID:15006665
RHIC is the first hadron accelerator and collider consisting of two independent rings. It is designed to operate over a wide range of beam energies and with particle species ranging from polarized protons to heavy ions. Machine operation and performance will be reviewed that includes gold-on-gold collisions at design beam energy (100 GeV/u), first high energy polarized proton-proton collisions (100 GeV on 100 GeV) as well as first asymmetric operation of RHIC to produce deuteron-on-gold collisions. Plans for future luminosity upgrades will also be presented.
