D^0 measurements in Au+Au Collisions at \sqrt{s_{NN}} = 200 GeV using the STAR Silicon Inner Tracker

Abstract

We present preliminary results from D^0 meson measurements through the hadronic decay channel in minimum bias Au+Au collisions at \sqrt{s_{NN}} = 200 GeV at STAR. The measurements are performed using a secondary vertexing technique that exploits the resolution given by the Silicon detectors available in STAR.
