To understand the dynamics of relativistic heavy-ion collisions, it is necessary to investigate particle production over a wide range of phase-space. Studying distributions of net baryons provides information on the degree of transparency/stopping of the collisions. Yields and ratios of the produced particles from the collisions are needed to understand mechanisms of the physics processes during and after collisions. The BRAHMS (Broad RAnge Hadron Magnetic Spectrometers) experiment at RHIC uniquely measures identified hadron distributions in rapidity 0 < y < 4 and momentum up to p = 25 GeV/c from Au+Au collisions at the highest energy currently available. We present some of the most recent BRAHMS results from Au+Au and p+p collisions at √s_NN = 200 GeV. The results include pseudo-rapidity dependent multiplicity distributions, particle ratios and transverse momentum spectra as functions of rapidity and collision centrality. Comparisons of the results with theoretical models will be also discussed.
