Brookhaven’s sPHENIX Detector Passes Key Test to Study Quark-Gluon Plasma
The sPHENIX particle detector at Brookhaven's RHIC has successfully demonstrated its precision in measuring particle collisions, confirming its readiness to study the properties of quark-gluon plasma, a state of matter from the early universe, by analyzing the particles produced in high-speed gold ion collisions.
