Summary
• PHENIX measured Low Mass Vector Meson, φandω production in both leptonic and hadronic channels in different collision system.– Spectra show good agreement among several deca
y channels in p+p and d+Au– A+A results have an ability to discuss hadron suppr
ession providing intriguing systematic results.

R.Rapp,H.Hees and T.Stronghep-ph/0611339 ↓
There’s no clear consistent results for the theoritical approach to search for the effect of Chiral Symmetry Restoration.
This is the example where experiments has the potential to guide the theory!
