  • Abstract
    Heavy quarks are unique probes to study the strongly-coupled Quark-Gluon Plasma created in relativistic heavy-ion collisions. Measuring the productions and correlations of both open heavy flavor and heavy quarkonia provides essential information to advance our understanding of the QCD mediumʼs properties. With the excellent particle identification capabilities and large acceptance detectors, the STAR experiment at RHIC has measured the productions and correlations of heavy flavor hadrons of a wide variety of species in broad image range. We present highlights of recent STAR heavy flavor measurements and also provide a brief overview of STAR future heavy flavor physics program.
