Summary • Elliptic flow of charged p, K, p from 62.4 GeV Au+Au • Similar p, K, p dependence with 200GeV Au+Au • Quark coalescence picture still works in pT /nquark<1 GeV/c • Heavy flavor electron from 200 GeV Au+Au • Consistent with/without Charm flow • Cross section of f meson • 200GeV d+Au and Au+Au • Less <Npart> dependence of inverse slope parameter (from mT exponential fit) • dN/dy increases with <Npart>, but liner scaling • Study of blast wave model fit • There is overlap of (Tfo, <bT>) of f with p, K, p • But large range of within-3-sigma of f • need more statistics for detail analysis • Rcp is close to pion’s • support quark number scaling not mass • Anti-Pentaquark search at PHENIX • No significant signal in 200 GeV p+p, d+Au, Au+Au • It might be due to S/N ratio is poor at PHENIX • Because of no significant peak of L(1520) • With mixing-event technique, we will have the other strangeness • New detectors • Aerogel Cherenkov counters are installed • PHENIX PID capability (proton separation from p/K) will be increased up to pT=7 GeV/c • Silicon VTX, HBD, TPC will come to help electron measurements Masashi Kaneta, RIKEN-BNL Research Center, “Strangeness at RHIC : Recent Results from PHENIX”

  31. About Sound Between Sections You hear sound between sections. That is from “Noh” which is Japanese traditional lyrical drama. “Noh” is completed as current style about 800 years ago in Muromachi shogunate era. The voice is “Yohhhh.” Following that, the sound of musical instrument “Pon” is hit of “Tsuzumi” which is Japanese hand drum. The voice and sound of Tsuzumi are used for adjustment of timing and atmosphere of a serif, and changing a scene. Therefore, I used it for changing section and subject. By the way, the opening music is not traditional. I borrowed it from a recent Japanese drama.
