We present data on long-range multiplicity correlations in ultra-relativistic heavy ion collisions at the top RHIC energy ($sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 200 GeV) from the STAR experiment. The data shows a long-range multiplicity correlation extending across a gap of 1.6 units in pseudorapidity. The data is over predicted by a multiparticle production model with hadronization of independent strings, or fusion of two color strings. This can be interpreted in terms of additional dynamical reduction in the number of particle sources.

Dihadron angular correlations in $d$+Au collisions at $sqrt{s_{rm NN}}=200$ GeV are reported as a function of the measured zero-degree calorimeter neutral energy and the forward charged hadron multiplicity in the Au-beam direction. A finite correlate d yield is observed at large relative pseudorapidity ($Deltaeta$) on the near side (i.e. relative azimuth $Deltaphisim0$). This correlated yield as a function of $Deltaeta$ appears to scale with the dominant, primarily jet-related, away-side ($Deltaphisimpi$) yield. The Fourier coefficients of the $Deltaphi$ correlation, $V_{n}=langlecos nDeltaphirangle$, have a strong $Deltaeta$ dependence. In addition, it is found that $V_{1}$ is approximately inversely proportional to the mid-rapidity event multiplicity, while $V_{2}$ is independent of it with similar magnitude in the forward ($d$-going) and backward (Au-going) directions.

We present the first measurements of long-range angular correlations and the transverse momentum dependence of elliptic flow $v_2$ in high-multiplicity $p$$+$Au collisions at $sqrt{s_{_{NN}}}=200$ GeV. A comparison of these results with previous meas urements in high-multiplicity $d$$+$Au and $^3{rm He}$$+$Au collisions demonstrates a relation between $v_2$ and the initial collision eccentricity $varepsilon_2$, suggesting that the observed momentum-space azimuthal anisotropies in these small systems have a collective origin and reflect the initial geometry. Good agreement is observed between the measured $v_2$ and hydrodynamic calculations for all systems, and an argument disfavoring theoretical explanations based on momentum-space domain correlations is presented. The set of measurements presented here allows us to leverage the distinct intrinsic geometry of each of these systems to distinguish between different theoretical descriptions of the long-range correlations observed in small collision systems.
We present measurements of $e^+e^-$ production at midrapidity in Au$+$Au collisions at $sqrt{s_{_{NN}}}$ = 200 GeV. The invariant yield is studied within the PHENIX detector acceptance over a wide range of mass ($m_{ee} <$ 5 GeV/$c^2$) and pair trans verse momentum ($p_T$ $<$ 5 GeV/$c$), for minimum bias and for five centrality classes. The ee yield is compared to the expectations from known sources. In the low-mass region ($m_{ee}=0.30$--0.76 GeV/$c^2$) there is an enhancement that increases with centrality and is distributed over the entire pair pt range measured. It is significantly smaller than previously reported by the PHENIX experiment and amounts to $2.3pm0.4({rm stat})pm0.4({rm syst})pm0.2^{rm model}$ or to $1.7pm0.3({rm stat})pm0.3({rm syst})pm0.2^{rm model}$ for minimum bias collisions when the open-heavy-flavor contribution is calculated with {sc pythia} or {sc mc@nlo}, respectively. The inclusive mass and $p_T$ distributions as well as the centrality dependence are well reproduced by model calculations where the enhancement mainly originates from the melting of the $rho$ meson resonance as the system approaches chiral symmetry restoration. In the intermediate-mass region ($m_{ee}$ = 1.2--2.8 GeV/$c^2$), the data hint at a significant contribution in addition to the yield from the semileptonic decays of heavy-flavor mesons.

We report preliminary results of hypertriton observation in heavy-ion collisions at RHIC. We have identified 157 +- 30 candidates in the current sample containing ~10^8 Au+Au events at sqrt{s_{NN}} = 200 GeV. The production rate of hypertriton is clo se to that of helium 3. No extra penalty factor is observed for hypertriton, in contrast to results observed at the AGS.
Yields, correlation shapes, and mean transverse momenta pt{} of charged particles associated with intermediate to high-pt{} trigger particles ($2.5 < pt < 10$ GeVc) in d+Au and Au+Au collisions at $snn=200$ GeV are presented. For associated particles at higher $pt gtrsim 2.5$ GeVc, narrow correlation peaks are seen in d+Au and Au+Au, indicating that the main production mechanism is jet fragmentation. At lower associated particle $pt < 2$ GeVc, a large enhancement of the near- ($dphi sim 0$) and away-side ($dphi sim pi$) associated yields is found, together with a strong broadening of the away-side azimuthal distributions in Au+Au collisions compared to d+Au measurements, suggesting that other particle production mechanisms play a role. This is further supported by the observed significant softening of the away-side associated particle yield distribution at $dphi sim pi$ in central Au+Au collisions.
