Scientific paper

The PHENIX experiment is one of the two large experiments at RHIC. It addresses most of the signals suggested from the Quark-Gluon Plasma. This paper focuses on the measurements of global observables and identified hadron spectra and particle ratios from the two first runs with Au+Au collisions at 130A GeV and 200A GeV. The energy density reached in the most central collisions is about 5 GeV/fm3. The spectral shape of the transverse momentum spectra as well as the < pT > dependence on centrality indicate a strong collective expansion of the system in central collisions. The observed number of protons and bar p is about the same indicating that we are approaching a net baryon free region at mid rapidity. A larger number of protons than pions above about 2 GeV/c is observed.
