โฆ Synopsis
These proceedings summarize the di-electron spectrum measurements by PHENIX in p + p and Au + Au collisions at โ s NN = 200 GeV, along with a comparison to the expectations from hadronic sources and various model predictions.
An overview of the latest PHENIX results on open heavy flavor and quarkonia production, measured through the electron and muon channels at mid-rapidity and forward/backward rapidity for p + p, d + Au and Au + Au collisions is also presented.

The PHENIX detector at RHIC has measured single electron spectra from heavy flavor decays in p+p and Au+Au collisions at โ S NN =200 GeV. A strong suppression is observed compared to the binary scaling of p+p collisions for high p T single electrons in Au+Au collisions providing evidence for strong
During the course of the conference, a number of questions about jets and heavy flavor production in heavy ion collisions were discussed. Some were solved, but the open questions are summarized here.
