Description
The PHENIX Experiment at RHIC recorded data from proton-proton, proton-ion, and ion-ion collisions for sixteen years, officially ending its run in 2016. PHENIX has since been fully dismantled, with the new sPHENIX detector completely installed in the same experimental hall at RHIC and starting to take data as of May of this year. Although PHENIX is no longer online, the last three years of operation collected data across a range of different collision systems: $p$$+$$p$, $p$$+$Al, $d$$+$Au, He$^{3}$$+$Au, and Au$+$Au. These data sets are still currently being analyzed. Recent collaboration efforts have focused primarily on thermal and direct photon measurements, small system studies, and elliptic flow, as well as hadronic nuclear modification measurements, including the $\phi$ meson and J/$\psi$, multiplicity studies at forward and mid-rapidity, jet modification with two-particle correlations and Bose-Einstein correlation functions. Here we present a selection of analyses PHENIX has approved as preliminary results or publication since the start of 2022.
