We present STAR measurements of azimuthal anisotropy by means of the two- and four-particle cumulants $v_2$ ($v_2{2}$ and $v_2{4}$) for Au+Au and Cu+Cu collisions at center of mass energies $sqrt{s_{_{mathrm{NN}}}} = 62.4$ and 200 GeV. The difference between $v_2{2}^2$ and $v_2{4}^2$ is related to $v_{2}$ fluctuations ($sigma_{v_2}$) and nonflow $(delta_{2})$. We present an upper limit to $sigma_{v_2}/v_{2}$. Following the assumption that eccentricity fluctuations $sigma_{epsilon}$ dominate $v_2$ fluctuations $frac{sigma_{v_2}}{v_2} approx frac{sigma_{epsilon}}{epsilon}$ we deduce the nonflow implied for several models of eccentricity fluctuations that would be required for consistency with $v_2{2}$ and $v_2{4}$. We also present results on the ratio of $v_2$ to eccentricity.

Charged particle pseudorapidity distributions are presented from the PHOBOS experiment at RHIC, measured in Au+Au and Cu+Cu collisions at sqrt{s_NN}=19.6, 22.4, 62.4, 130 and 200 GeV, as a function of collision centrality. The presentation includes t
he recently analyzed Cu+Cu data at 22.4 GeV. The measurements were made by the same detector setup over a broad range in pseudorapidity, |eta|<5.4, allowing for a reliable systematic study of particle production as a function of energy, centrality and system size. Comparing Cu+Cu and Au+Au results, we find that the total number of produced charged particles and the overall shape (height and width) of the pseudorapidity distributions are determined by the number of nucleon participants, N_part. Detailed comparisons reveal that the matching of the shape of the Cu+Cu and Au+Au pseudorapidity distributions over the full range of eta is better for the same N_part/2A value than for the same N_part value, where A denotes the mass number. In other words, it is the geometry of the nuclear overlap zone, rather than just the number of nucleon participants that drives the detailed shape of the pseudorapidity distribution and its centrality dependence.
We analyse various flow coefficients of anisotropic momentum distribution of final state particles in mid-central ($b$ $=$ 5--9 $fm$) Au + Au collisions in the beam energy range $rm E_{rm Lab}$ $=$ $1A -158A$ GeV. Different variants of the Ultra-rela
tivistic Quantum Molecular Dynamics (UrQMD) model, namely the pure transport (cascade) mode and the hybrid mode, are employed for this investigation. In the hybrid UrQMD model, the ideal hydrodynamical evolution is integrated with the pure transport calculation for description of the evolution of the fireball. We opt for the different available equations of state (EoS) replicating the hadronic as well as partonic degrees of freedom together with possible phase transitions, viz. hadron gas, chiral + deconfinement EoS and bag model EoS, to investigate their effect on the properties of the final state particles. We also attempt to gain insights about the dynamics of the medium by studying different features of particle production such as particle ratios and net-proton rapidity distribution. The results and conclusions drawn here would be useful to understand the response of various observables to the underlying physics of the model as well as to make comparisons with the upcoming measurements of the future experiments at Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR) and Nuclotron-based Ion Collider fAcility (NICA).
We present a system size and energy dependence of $phi$ meson production in Cu+Cu and Au+Au collisions at $sqrt{s_{NN}}$=62.4 GeV and 200 GeV measured by the STAR experiment at RHIC. We find that the number of participant scaled $phi$ meson yields in
heavy ion collisions over that of p+p collisions are larger than 1 and increase with collision energy. We compare the results with those of open-strange particles and discuss the physics implication.
We review the charged particle and photon multiplicity, and transverse energy production in heavy-ion collisions starting from few GeV to TeV energies. The experimental results of pseudorapidity distribution of charged particles and photons at differ
ent collision energies and centralities are discussed. We also discuss the hypothesis of limiting fragmentation and expansion dynamics using the Landau hydrodynamics and the underlying physics. Meanwhile, we present the estimation of initial energy density multiplied with formation time as a function of different collision energies and centralities. In the end, the transverse energy per charged particle in connection with the chemical freeze-out criteria is discussed. We invoke various models and phenomenological arguments to interpret and characterize the fireball created in heavy-ion collisions. This review overall provides a scope to understand the heavy-ion collision data and a possible formation of a deconfined phase of partons via the global observables like charged particles, photons and the transverse energy measurement.
We present the first measurements of the pseudorapidity distribution of primary charged particles in Cu+Cu collisions as a function of collision centrality and energy, sqrtsnn = 22.4, 62.4 and 200 GeV, over a wide range of pseudorapidity, using the P
HOBOS detector. Making a global comparison of Cu+Cu and Au+Au results, we find that the total number of produced charged particles and the rough shape (height and width) of the pseudorapidity distributions are determined by the number of nucleon participants. More detailed studies reveal that a more precise matching of the shape of the Cu+Cu and Au+Au pseudorapidity distributions over the full range of pseudorapidity occurs for the same Npart/2A value rather than the same Npart value. In other words, it is the collision geometry rather than just the number of nucleon participants that drives the detailed shape of the pseudorapidity distribution and its centrality dependence at RHIC energies.
