Strange hadron production is believed to be sensitive to parton dynamics in nucleus-nucleus collisions, in particular, the strange quark production rate and its subsequent evolution in the dense partonic medium depend on the beam energy and the net baryon density. We will present STAR measurements of $K_{s}$, $\Lambda$, $\Xi$, $\Omega$ at mid-rapidity from Au+Au collisions at the beam energies...

The study of pp collisions at LHC energies is important not only as a baseline for future analysis in heavy-ion events at ALICE but also aiding in the calibration of QCD inspired models for LHC energies.
ALICE has measured the rho0, Sigma* and Csi* resonances in pp collisions at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV. This presentation will give an overview of the obtained results including transverse momentum...

Properties of the hadronic phase of high-energy heavy-ion collisions can be studied by measuring the ratios of hadronic resonance yields to the yields of longer-lived particles such as charged pions and kaons. These ratios can be used to study the strength of re-scattering effects, the chemical freeze-out
temperature, and the lifetime between chemical and kinetic freeze-out. The restoration...

Low mass vector meson (ρ, ω, ϕ) production provides key information on
the hot and dense state of strongly interacting matter produced in high-energy heavy-ion collisions. Among them, strangeness production can be accessed through the measurement of ϕ meson production. The detection of vector mesons through their decay in dileptons has the advantage, with respect to hadronic decays, that the...
