【 摘 要 】

Measurements of jets and heavy-avor production play an important role in understanding properties of hot and dense nuclear matter created in high energy heavy-ion collisions. As direct measurements of jets are di-cult due to large underlying background, jet properties can be also studied via di-hadron and multihadron correlations. In this contribution to these proceedings, an overview of recent STAR results on correlations, jet-hadron correlations, and heavy-avor production in Au+Au collisions at top RHIC energy ( √sNN = 200 GeV) is given. In order to draw quantitative conclusions on properties of the hot and dense nuclear matter created in Au+Au collisions, reference measurements in elementary proton-proton collisions and d+Au collisions are essential to estimate contributions due to cold nuclear matter e-ects and are discussed as well.
