Summary • Phobos has PID coverage from 0.05 to 3.5 GeV/c in pT First PID ratios and spectra from PHOBOS TOF Surprisingly small centrality dependence of p/p ratios Approximate mT scaling in d+Au as opposed to Au+Au Particle composition in d+Au: similar pT-dependence to lower energy data (but different overall proton fraction) • Study ofh-dependence Exciting newh-dependent RdAu values measured RdAu continuously decreases withh More coming soon...
