Recent Results on the Forward Regime by the BRAHMS Experiment at RHIC.
Natalia Katryńska

The BRAHMS experiment has unique capabilities to measure particle production over a wide range of rapidity. This paper presents the latest results how the medium evolves from midrapidity to the forward region in the ultra-relativistic collisions at RHIC. The rapidity loss at RHIC energies is shown for nucleus+nucleus system. The studies of proton enhancement to the pion yield at intermediate pT are presented for p+p and Au+Au reactions. For d+Au collisions at = 200 GeV pions, kaons and protons are all suppressed at forward rapidity.
Key words: forward rapidity, nuclear stopping, particle ratios, nuclear modification factor
