Burn-off dominated uranium and asymmetric copper-gold operation in RHIC
In 2012 the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider collided uranium-uranium ions with a particle energy of 96.4 GeV/nucleon and copper-gold (Cu-Au) ions at 100 GeV/nucleon for the first time. 3-dimensional stochastic cooling became operational for the first time and greatly enhanced the luminosity.
