We present particle spectra for charged hadrons $pi^pm, K^pm, p$ and $bar{p}$ from pp collisions at $sqrt{s}=200$ GeV measured for the first time at forward rapidities (2.95 and 3.3). The kinematics of these measurements are skewed in a way that probes the small momentum fraction in one of the protons and large fractions in the other. Large proton to pion ratios are observed at values of transverse momentum that extend up to 4 GeV/c, where protons have momenta up to 35 GeV. Next-to-leading order perturbative QCD calculations describe the production of pions and kaons well at these rapidities, but fail to account for the large proton yields and small $bar{p}/p$ ratios.

We report results on the total and elastic cross sections in proton-proton collisions at $sqrt{s}=200$ GeV obtained with the Roman Pot setup of the STAR experiment at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC). The elastic differential cross section
was measured in the squared four-momentum transfer range $0.045 leq -t leq 0.135$ GeV$^2$. The value of the exponential slope parameter $B$ of the elastic differential cross section $dsigma/dt sim e^{-Bt}$ in the measured $-t$ range was found to be $B = 14.32 pm 0.09 (stat.)^{scriptstyle +0.13}_{scriptstyle -0.28} (syst.)$ GeV$^{-2}$. The total cross section $sigma_{tot}$, obtained from extrapolation of the $dsigma/dt$ to the optical point at $-t = 0$, is $sigma_{tot} = 54.67 pm 0.21 (stat.) ^{scriptstyle +1.28}_{scriptstyle -1.38} (syst.)$ mb. We also present the values of the elastic cross section $sigma_{el} = 10.85 pm 0.03 (stat.) ^{scriptstyle +0.49}_{scriptstyle -0.41}(syst.)$ mb, the elastic cross section integrated within the STAR $t$-range $sigma^{det}_{el} = 4.05 pm 0.01 (stat.) ^{scriptstyle+0.18}_{scriptstyle -0.17}(syst.)$ mb, and the inelastic cross section $sigma_{inel} = 43.82 pm 0.21 (stat.) ^{scriptstyle +1.37}_{scriptstyle -1.44} (syst.)$ mb. The results are compared with the world data.
The PHENIX experiment at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider has measured low mass vector meson, $omega$, $rho$, and $phi$, production through the dimuon decay channel at forward rapidity ($1.2<|y|<2.2$) in $p$$+$$p$ collisions at $sqrt{s}=200$ GeV.
The differential cross sections for these mesons are measured as a function of both $p_T$ and rapidity. We also report the integrated differential cross sections over $1<p_T<7$ GeV/$c$ and $1.2<|y|<2.2$: $dsigma/dy(omega+rhorightarrowmumu) = 80 pm 6 mbox{(stat)} pm 12 mbox{(syst)}$ nb and $dsigma/dy(phirightarrowmumu) = 27 pm 3 mbox{(stat)} pm 4 mbox{(syst)}$ nb. These results are compared with midrapidity measurements and calculations.
We report high-precision measurements of the longitudinal double-spin asymmetry, $A_{LL}$, for midrapidity inclusive jet and dijet production in polarized $pp$ collisions at a center-of-mass energy of $sqrt{s}=200,mathrm{GeV}$. The new inclusive jet
data are sensitive to the gluon helicity distribution, $Delta g(x,Q^2)$, for gluon momentum fractions in the range from $x simeq 0.05$ to $x simeq 0.5$, while the new dijet data provide further constraints on the $x$ dependence of $Delta g(x,Q^2)$. The results are in good agreement with previous measurements at $sqrt{s}=200,mathrm{GeV}$ and with recent theoretical evaluations of prior world data. Our new results have better precision and thus strengthen the evidence that $Delta g(x,Q^2)$ is positive for $x > 0.05$.
We report on the measurement of the Central Exclusive Production of charged particle pairs $h^{+}h^{-}$ ($h = pi, K, p$) with the STAR detector at RHIC in proton-proton collisions at $sqrt{s} = 200$ GeV. The charged particle pairs produced in the rea
ction $ppto p^prime+h^{+}h^{-}+p^prime$ are reconstructed from the tracks in the central detector, while the forward-scattered protons are measured in the Roman Pot system. Differential cross sections are measured in the fiducial region, which roughly corresponds to the square of the four-momentum transfers at the proton vertices in the range $0.04~mbox{GeV}^2 < -t_1 , -t_2 < 0.2~mbox{GeV}^2$, invariant masses of the charged particle pairs up to a few GeV and pseudorapidities of the centrally-produced hadrons in the range $|eta|<0.7$. The measured cross sections are compared to phenomenological predictions based on the Double Pomeron Exchange (DPE) model. Structures observed in the mass spectra of $pi^{+}pi^{-}$ and $K^{+}K^{-}$ pairs are consistent with the DPE model, while angular distributions of pions suggest a dominant spin-0 contribution to $pi^{+}pi^{-}$ production. The fiducial $pi^+pi^-$ cross section is extrapolated to the Lorentz-invariant region, which allows decomposition of the invariant mass spectrum into continuum and resonant contributions. The extrapolated cross section is well described by the continuum production and at least three resonances, the $f_0(980)$, $f_2(1270)$ and $f_0(1500)$, with a possible small contribution from the $f_0(1370)$. Fits to the extrapolated differential cross section as a function of $t_1$ and $t_2$ enable extraction of the exponential slope parameters in several bins of the invariant mass of $pi^+pi^-$ pairs. These parameters are sensitive to the size of the interaction region.
We report measurements of the charge-separated $W^{+(-)} to e^{+(-)} + u_e(bar{ u}_e)$ and $Z/gamma^* to e^+e^-$ production cross sections at mid-rapidity in proton-proton collisions at $sqrt{s}$ = 500 GeV. These results are based on 13.2 pb$^{-1}$
of data recorded in 2009 by the STAR detector at RHIC. Production cross sections for W bosons that decay via the $e u$ channel were measured to be $sigma(pp to W^+ X) cdot BR(W^+ to e^+ u_e)$ = 117.3 pm 5.9(stat) pm 6.2(syst) pm 15.2(lumi) pb, and $sigma(pp to W^- X) cdot BR(W^- to e^- bar{ u}_e)$ = 43.3 pm 4.6(stat) pm 3.4(syst) pm 5.6(lumi) pb. For $Z/gamma^*$ production, $sigma(pp to Z/gamma^* X) cdot BR(Z/gamma^* to e^+ e^-)$ = 7.7 pm 2.1(stat) $^{+0.5}_{-0.9}$(syst) pm 1.0(lumi) pb for di-lepton invariant masses $m_{e^+e^-}$ between 70 and 110 GeV/$c^2$. First measurements of the W cross section ratio, $sigma(pp to W^+ X) / sigma(pp to W^- X)$, at $sqrt{s}$ = 500 GeV are also reported. Theoretical predictions, calculated using recent parton distribution functions, are found to agree with the measured cross sections.
