在过去的几年里，PHOBOS继续分析布鲁克海文国家实验室的相对论重离子对撞机（RHIC）前五次运行所获得的大型数据集。两个主要的分析流一直在进行。第一个项目旨在对重离子碰撞中粒子产生的全球性质进行广泛和系统的调查。第二类包括粒子产生中的波动和相关性的研究。这两种类型的研究已经进行了各种碰撞系统，涵盖了广泛的碰撞能量和中心。利用PHOBOS探测器独特的大角度覆盖范围及其测量带电粒子到非常低的横向动量的能力。PHOBOS的最新物理结果，在夸克物质2008年会议上提出，包含在本文中。
Over the past few years PHOBOS has continued to analyze the large data sets obtained from the first five runs of the relativistic heavy-ion collider (RHIC) at Brookhaven National Laboratory. The two main analysis streams have been pursued. The first one aims to obtain a broad and systematic survey of global properties of particle production in heavy-ion collisions. The second class includes the study of fluctuations and correlations in particle production. Both type of studies have been performed for a variety of the collision systems, covering a wide range in collision energy and centrality. The uniquely large angular coverage of the PHOBOS detector and its ability to measure charged particles down to very low-transverse momentum is exploited. The latest physics results from PHOBOS, as presented at the Quark Matter 2008 Conference, are contained in this paper.
