  17. DNP02 Aneta Iordanova Conclusion • Phobos has measured charged-particle multiplicity dependence on centrality and energy in Au-Au collisions at √sNN of 200,130 and 19.6GeV. • The mid-rapidity scaled charged-particle multiplicity shows evidence for deviation from Npart scaling over the studied centrality range. • The mid-rapidity scaled charged-particle multiplicity dependence on energy follows the logarithmic rise.
