- Summary
- An overview of the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) and its experimental program is presented. The physics capabilities of STAR, one of two large experiments planned for RHIC, are described through simulations of the measurements anticipated in STAR. The STAR experiment will concentrate on hadronic observables in the search for the Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP). An emphasis will be placed on event-by-event observables in an attempt to extract thermodynamic variables of individual events and to be able to identify special events characteristic of QGP formation.
