Strange hadrons have been suggested as sensitive probes of the properties of the nuclear matter created in heavy-ion collisions. At few-GeV collision energies, the formed medium is baryon-rich due to baryon stopping effect. In these…
In these proceedings, we present STAR measurements of directed flow, $v_{1}$, for pions, protons and antiprotons between $\sqrt{s_{NN}} = 7.7$ GeV and 200 GeV. A striking observation is that the $v_1$ slope for net protons as a function of…
