Ratio of Au+Au and pp Spectra at 200 GeV Observe a significant change in the spectral shape between pp and Au+Au collisions already for mid-peripheral events. Central Au+Au collisions show a strong violation of (expected) collision scaling at high p T. mid-peripheral central N part = 65 ± 4 N part = 344 ± 12 pp from UA1: Nucl.Phys.B335, (1990) 261.

Spectrometer Results Low Pt –Au+Au particle ratios: show that a net baryon free region is being approached at RHIC High Pt –Au+Au spectra: central spectrum shows strong suppression relative to collision scaling –d+Au spectra: suppression observed in Au+Au spectra is not due to initial state effects
