Phobos (physics)

Phobos (physics)

Phobos was a heavy ion collision experiment at Brookhaven National Laboratory's RHIC collider. All data is already collected and the experiment is in the data analysis stage as of March 2006. The name is chosen in memory of a previously rejected proposal by the same group called M.A.R.S. as Phobos is one of the moons of Mars.
