star focus: quark matter 2005

Posted: August 11, 2005

The 18th International Conference on Nucleus Nucleus Collisions (Quark Matter 2005) was held in Budapest, Hungary, August 4-9. STAR presented new results on several fronts, summarized in two experimental summary talks on the conference's first day and a special focus talk on the last day. STAR contributed 15 parallel talks and many posters.

Below is a list of STAR talks presented at QM 2005.

star overview talks

• Soft physics from STAR, Fuqiang Wang, Purdue University
• Hard physics from STAR, James Dunlop, Brookhaven National Laboratory

star focus talk

• Some striking new STAR results, Carl Gagliardi, Texas A&M University

star parallel talks

• Centrality dependence of heavy flavor production from single electron measurement in sqrt(s) = 200 GeV Au+Au collisions, Jaroslav Bielcik, Czech Technical University in Prague
