The recombination model is applied to the production of $K, \phi, \Lambda$ and $\Omega$ at all $p_T$ in central Au+Au collisions. The thermal-shower component of the recombination is found to be important for $K$ and $\Lambda$, but only in…
We present measurements of $\Omega$ and $\phi$ production at mid-rapidity from Au+Au collisions at nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass energies $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 7.7, 11.5, 19.6, 27 and 39 GeV by the STAR experiment at the Relativistic Heavy Ion…
We investigate the production of the Phi meson and the Omega baryon which interact weakly with hot hadronic matter, and thus their spectra reflect the early stage of the heavy ion collisions. Our analysis shows that the hadronization…
The data on the $p_T$ spectra of $\phi$ and $\Omega$ at LHC can be presented in a format that shows exponential behavior up to $p_T\approx 6$ GeV/c with the same slope for both particles and for nearly all centralities. They are empirical…
We extract the effective degrees of freedom that characterize the co-existing phase of quark gluon plasma and hadrons. Experimental data on phi at mid-rapidity is used to set a lower bound to the critical temperature of quark hadron phase…

Hadron production at all $p_T$ in heavy-ion collisions in the framework of parton recombination is reviewed. It is shown that the recombination of thermal and shower partons dominates the hadron spectra in the intermediate $p_T$ region. In…

Production of resonances is considered in the framework of the single-freeze-out model of ultra-relativistic heavy ion collisions. The formalism involves the virial expansion, where the probability to form a resonance in a two-body channel…

For heavy-ion collisions at RHIC a scaling behavior is found in the dependencies on azimuthal angle $\phi$ and impact parameter $b$ for pion production at high $p_T$ essentially independent of the hadronization process. The scaling variable…
