System size and energy dependence of $\phi$ meson production at RHIC

Nuclear Experiment 2008-11-26 v1

Abstract

We present a system size and energy dependence of ϕ\phi meson production in Cu+Cu and Au+Au collisions at sNN\sqrt{s_{NN}}=62.4 GeV and 200 GeV measured by the STAR experiment at RHIC. We find that the number of participant scaled ϕ\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.
