We report measurements of charmed hadron production from hadronic ($D^{0}\rightarrow K\pi$) and semileptonic ($\mu$ and $e$) decays in 200 GeV Au+Au collisions at RHIC. Analysis of the spectra indicates that charmed hadrons have a different…

In this report, we present the measurements of open charm production at mid-rapidity in p+p, d+Au, and Au+Au collisions at RHIC energies. The techniques of direct reconstruction of open charm via its hadronic decay and indirect measurements…

We present an overview of the recent abundant measurements for charm production at RHIC. The significant information of charm cross sections in different collision system at 200 GeV and charmed hadron freeze-out and flow properties…

In this thesis, we present the measurements of $D^{0}\to K\pi$ at low $p_T$ ($p_T\leq2$ GeV/$c$) and non-photonic electron spectra ($0.9\leq p_T\leq5$ GeV/$c$) from $D^0$ semi-leptonic decay. In addition, we use a newly proposed technique…

We propose a sensitive measurement of the charm total cross-section at RHIC through muon identification from charm semileptonic decay at low transverse momentum ($p_T$). This can test the binary-collision scaling ($N_{bin}$) properties of…

We discuss production of charm quarks, mesons as well as nonphotonic electrons in $pp$ scattering at RHIC. The distributions in rapidity and transverse momentum of charm and bottom quarks/antiquarks are calculated in the $k_t$-factorization…

Charm production from the direct reconstruction of $D^0$ ($D^0\to K\pi$ up to 2 GeV/$c$) and indirect lepton measurements via charm semileptonic decays ($c\to e+X$ at 0.9\textless$p_T$\textless5.0 GeV/$c$ and $c\to \mu+X$ at…

We discuss production of charm quarks and mesons as well as nonphotonic electrons in $pp$ scattering at RHIC. The distributions in rapidity and transverse momentum of charm and bottom quarks/antiquarks are calculated in the…

We discuss production of charmed mesons as well as electrons/muons from semileptonic decays of charm and bottom mesons in proton-proton collisions at the LHC. The cross section for inclusive production of $c \bar c$ and $b \bar b$ pairs is…

Electrons from semileptonic decays of heavy-flavor mesons (D and B) allow to study the energy loss of heavy-quarks in nuclear collisions at sqrt(s) = 200 GeV at RHIC. Since pQCD calculations have shown that the crossing point where bottom…

In these proceedings, heavy flavor production as measured by STAR is disscussed. This can be done directly by reconstruction of the hadronic decays or indirectly by the measurement of electrons from semileptonic decays of heavy quark…

We discuss aspects of open and hidden charm production in hadron-nucleus collisions at RHIC and LHC energies. We first discuss the extraction of the total charm cross section in lower energy collisions and how it compares to next-to-leading…

We discuss aspects of open and hidden charm production in deuterium-nucleus collisions at RHIC and LHC energies. We describe calculations of the total $c \bar c$ cross section and the charm quark transverse momentum distributions. We next…

RHIC-PHENIX has observed a large suppression pattern and azimuthal anisotropy of non-photonic electron at mid-rapidity ($\mid\eta\mid<0.35$) in Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}} = 200$ GeV. To understand these results and the interaction…

We report on the measurement of D meson production from the analysis of their hadronic ($D^0\to K\pi$) and semileptonic ($D\to \mu+X$, $D\to e+X$) decays in $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$=200 GeV Au+Au collisions. The transverse momentum ($p_T$) spectra…

Both dilepton and charm production at RHIC are considered to be important signatures for Quark-Gluon Plasma production. Recently it was argued by S.Gavin, P.L.McGaughey,P.V. Ruuskanen and R.Vogt that the background from semileptonic…

Heavy quarks are a unique probe to study the medium produced in ultra-relativistic heavy ion collisions. The dominant process of charm quark production at RHIC is believed to be initial gluon fusion which can be calculated in the…

The measurement of electrons from semi-leptonic decay of heavy flavor in $p+p$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}$=200 GeV has been carried out with the PHENIX detector in the RHIC Year-2005 and Year-2006 run. This measurement provides a good test of…

Open charm spectra at mid-rapidity from direct reconstruction of $D^{0}\to K\pi$ and indirect electron/positron measurements via charm semileptonic decay in p+p and d+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{_{\rm NN}}}$ = 200 GeV are reported. The…

Transverse momentum spectra of electrons from Au+Au collisions at sqrt(s_NN) = 130 GeV have been measured by the PHENIX experiment at RHIC. The spectra show an excess above the background from photon conversions and light hadron decays. The…
