sPHENIX is a new detector at RHIC.

[Anne Sickles <sickles AT illinois.edu>]

Hi all,

Both PPG01 and PPG03 have just circulated the first sPHENIX potential 
physics results to the sphenix-l mailing list (see the separate emails 
sent by Anthony & Emma).  I would encourage everyone to read these notes 
and provide comments in invenio ahead of the collaboration wide 
discussion on Thursday morning May 30.

Please note that both of these results are intended as preliminary 
results at this time, not publications.  There will be a public 
supporting note (similar to what CMS and ATLAS do) and drafts of that 
are what have just been circulated.

Getting these results to this stage has taken a huge amount of work not 
only by the PPG members, but by the whole collaboration and I'm excited 
that we have reached this step in executing the sPHENIX physics program.

I will provide a few more details on this process tomorrow in the 
General Meeting and I'm looking forward to a productive discussion Thursday!

Best,

Anne
