Selected highlights from STAR experiment

In this paper, we review recent highlights in heavy-ion collisions and proton-proton collisions at top energies from STAR experiment at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) with key contributions from Chinese groups, including the Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) bulk properties, electromagnetic probes, heavy flavor and jets, antimatter hyper-nucleus, nuclear structure, global polarization, and nucleon spin structure. These data serve as important ingredients in the physics of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD).

$\Upsilon$ Production in Heavy-Ion Collisions from the STAR Experiment

In these proceedings, we present recent results of $\Upsilon$ measurements in heavy-ion collisions from the STAR experiment at RHIC. Nuclear modification factors ($R_{AA}$) for $\Upsilon(1S)$ and $\Upsilon(1S+2S+3S)$ in U+U collisions at \sqrtsNN\ = 193 GeV are measured through the di-electron channel and compared to those in Au+Au collisions at \sqrtsNN\ = 200 GeV and Pb+Pb collisions at \sqrtsNN\ = 2.76 TeV. The ratio between the $\Upsilon(2S+3S)$ and $\Upsilon(1S)$ yields in Au+Au collisions at \sqrtsNN\ = 200 GeV is measured in the di-muon channel and compared to those in p+p collisions and in Pb+Pb collisions at \sqrtsNN\ = 2.76 TeV. Prospects for future $\Upsilon$ measurements with the STAR experiment are also discussed.
