Beam Energy Scan at RHIC STAR has collected data from the following collision energies (in decreasing energy order) : 200, 130, 62.4, 39, 19.6, 11.5, 9, 7.7 GeV This presentation aims to show the work-in-progress analysis of the 39 GeV data sample Spectra shapes and particle ratios help connect collected data to observables that are expected to change in such a phase transition 2 Properties of matter created at 200 GeV are consistent with an expected 2 nd order phase transition Beam Energy Scan (BES) at RHIC looks to experimentally find the critical point of 1 st order phase transition predicted to exist at lower energies Simply a cartoon, does not represent actual experiential data

Time Projection Chamber (TPC) The TPC is a barrel shaped detector consisting of a gas-filled chamber, magnet providing a strong uniform magnetic field, and an electric field between the center and endplates We use measurements of the ionization energy loss (dE/dx) and momentum to identify particles 3
