Advantage of Systematic Measurement- Leptonic Decay mode: no final distortion

- Hadronic Decay mode: high BR,

no ρ-contribution (e+e- case)

- Wide kinematic coverage

- Reference study (comparing collision system)

- Line Shape Analysis (BR check)

-different collision mode (p+p, d+Au, A+A)

- The discussion in low pT physics is hard due to low statistics and S/N The discussion in low pT physics is hard due to low statistics and S/N - Run10 is now taking AuAu dataRun10 is now taking AuAu datawith activated HBDwith activated HBD e+ e -

Summary• PHENIX measured Low Mass Vector Meson, omeg

a and phi production in both leptonic and hadronic channels in different collision system.

– Spectra show good agreement in p+p and d+Au

– Mass modification discussion is hard to discuss – Yield measurement provide intriguing systematic

results of hadron suppression.
