In these proceedings, we present the latest measurements of J/ψ and ϒ by the STAR experiment. The J/ψ and ϒ production measured in p+p collisions provide new baselines for similar measurements in Au+Au collisions, while the measurements in p+Au collisions can help quantify the cold nuclear matter effects. The J/ψ υ2 is measured in both U+U and Au+Au collisions to place constraints on the amount of J/ψ arising from recombination of deconfined charm and anti-charm pairs. Furthermore, the nuclear modification factors for ground and excited ϒ states as a function of transverse momentum and centrality are presented, and compared to those measured at the LHC as well as to theoretical calculations.

We present several possibilities offered by the dynamics of intermediate energy heavy ion collisions to investigate the nuclear matter equation of state (EoS) beyond the ground state. In particular the relation between the reaction dynamics and the high density nuclear EoS is discussed by comparing theoretical results with experiments.

The impact of the kaon polarization in nuclear matter on the K− yield in intermediate-energy heavy-ion collisions is investigated. Our scenario of the strange particle production and dynamics is based on an expanding fireball model. This allows for a proper account of in-medium effects. A relation between observed K+ and K− yields is derived. Differential K− cross-sections are calculated and compared with available experimental data taken at various collision energies. It turns out that in-medium effects can modify the K− yields by factors 2 to 5 at beam energies between 2 and 1 AGeV.
