We present recent results for heavy flavor and jets produced in $\sqrt{s_{NN}} = 200$ GeV p-p, d-Au, Cu-Cu and Au-Au collisions at at RHIC. We find J/$\psi$ production is suppressed in Au-Au, but high energy J/$\psi$ are not suppressed in…

Measurements of electrons from the decay of open-heavy-flavor mesons have shown that the yields are suppressed in Au+Au collisions compared to expectations from binary scaled p+p collisions. These measurements indicate that charm and bottom…

Jets are multiscale objects that connect partons to hadrons, making jet substructure measurements crucial for probing both perturbative and non-perturbative processes in QCD. At STAR, a variety of jet substructure observables, such as…
The azimuthal width of the di-hadron correlations in p$+$p collisons, beyond the fragmentation transverse momentum, $j_T$, is dominated by $k_T$, the so-called intrinsic transverse momentum of a parton in a nucleon, which can be measured.…
Dihadron correlations with a high-pt trigger particle are analyzed by STAR relative to the event plane in Au+Au collisions at 200 GeV (arXiv:1010.0690v1). The elliptic and quadrangular flow anisotropies are subtracted. The remaining…
We measure the relative abundances of strange mesons, baryons, and anti-baryons correlated with high-$p_T$ trigger particles in $^{197}$Au + $^{197}$Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 200 GeV. Particle yields and ratios are extracted on the…
