Abstract
The PHENIX collaboration studies the cold nuclear matter effects by measuring the spectra of various probes over a wide range of transverse momentum and rapidity in d+Au collisions. The lepton decay channels of the Ï meson and heavy flavor make them especially interesting probes since leptons interact only electromagnetically, thus retain information from their production phase. In 2008, the PHENIX collaboration collected â¼60Â nbâ1 from d+Au collisions at sNN=200Â GeV. We report recent PHENIX results of Ï meson and heavy flavor invariant production spectra and nuclear modification factors from this data set.
