Masashi Kaneta, LBLSummary The p T distributions of , K, and p are obtained as a function of centrality from RHIC-STAR at s NN =130GeV Au+Au The blast wave model describes the data over all of centrality As a function of centrality at RHIC –T th ~ 100 MeV – goes up then saturated (~0.55c) –Flow profile changed? From SPS to RHIC –Increasing flow –Decreasing temperature –Indicating longer time for cooling at RHIC?
