Transverse energy and charged particle multiplicity at various   centralities at RHIC: Statistical model estimates
  The transverse energy and the charged particle multiplicity at midrapidity are evaluated in a single-freeze-out model for different centrality bins at RHIC at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=130$ and 200 GeV. The predictions of the model are done at the freeze-out parameters determined earlier from measured particle yields and $p_{T}$ spectra. The results agree qualitatively well with the experimental data.
