Direct photons provide a insightful tool to study the different stages of a heavy ion collision, especially the formation of a quark-gluon plasma, without being influenced by the strong interaction and hadronization processes. The yield of…

We search for the $B^0\to p\bar{\Sigma}^0\pi^-$ decay with $\bar{\Sigma}^0 \to \bar{\Lambda}\gamma$, where the $\gamma$ is not measured, using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 711 $\rm{fb^{-1}}$ which contains 772…

We report the first observation of the reactions $Au + Au \to Au + Au + \rho^0$ and $Au + Au \to Au^* + Au^* + \rho^0$ with the STAR detector. The $\rho$ are produced at small perpendicular momentum, as expected if they couple coherently to…
