Hello,

I would like to submit the following abstract to the APS DPF meeting in Ann Arbor in August:

The sPHENIX Experiment
John Haggerty

sPHENIX is a proposal for a new experiment at RHIC capable of measuring jets, jet correlations and upsilons to determine the temperature dependence of transport coefficients of the quark-gluon plasma (QGP). The sPHENIX detector will acquire a large sample of events with a high rate data acquisition system from a large acceptance spectrometer with full hadronic and electromagnetic calorimetry and precision tracking. A program of systematic measurements near the QGP transition temperature at RHIC will complement existing and planned measurements being made as part of the LHC heavy-ion program. The talk will describe the proposed new detector and some of the key measurements enabled by it.

Abstracts are due on Friday, please send me any suggestions before then. Thanks.
