Abstract
We report the results of and near mid-rapidity for , , , and in Au+Au collisions at = 7.7, 11.5, 14.5, 19.6, 27 and 39~GeV using the STAR detector at RHIC. The of is found to be consistent with that of the proton and shows a change in sign near ~GeV. The slope for , and shows a similar trend for 14.5~GeV, while below 14.5~GeV, is consistent with zero but with a large uncertainty. The for net protons and net kaons is similar for 14.5~GeV, but they deviate at lower beam energies.
