Abstract

The STAR Collaboration has a broad range of recent results on intermediate and high- $p_{\rm T}$ phenomena in Au + Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 200 and 62 GeV and in d + Au at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 200 GeV. These include new measurements of spectra, azimuthal anisotropies and di-hadron correlations. The comparison of the 62 and 200 GeV Au + Au results indicates that jet quenching, elliptic flow and di-hadron correlation measurements are very similar at the two energies. Meson-baryon differences that have been seen at intermediate $p_{\rm T}$ in 200 GeV Au + Au collisions are also present in 62 GeV Au + Au collisions and in 200 GeV d + Au collisions. Measurements of backward-forward inclusive hadron yield asymmetries and forward-midrapidity di-hadron correlations in d + Au collisions are consistent with the saturation picture. A brief review of these results is presented.
