Strangeness and heavy flavor at RHIC: Recent results from PHENIX

Abstract

We report recent results of strangeness and heavy flavor measurements from PHENIX. The topics are: Elliptic flow of strangeness and heavy flavor electron production comparing to the other hadrons, $\phi$ meson production, and an exotic particle search.Comment: 8 pages, 6 figures, 1 table.
