Abstract
This proceeding gives the most complete review of the measurements of the φ-meson production in relativistic heavy ion and proton-proton collisions performed by the PHENIX experiment at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider at Brookhaven National Laboratory. The measurements of the φ-meson are consistent in the analysis of various decay modes, using different techniques. The results show expected similarities when analyzed in Au + Au and Cu + Cu collision systems for the corresponding centrality classes. In other systems PHENIX observes not only the difference between the suppression of φ-meson and the proton, reflecting generally different behavior between mesons and baryons, but also a significant difference in suppression of different mesons. These results are hard to explain due to the mass or quark content of the φ-meson.
