The Event Plane Detector (EPD) is an upgrade detector to the STAR experiment at RHIC, designed to measure the pattern of forward-going charged particles emitted in a high-energy collision between heavy nuclei. It consists of two highly-segmented disks of 1.2-cm-thick scintillator embedded with wavelength-shifting fiber, coupled to silicon photomultipliers and custom electronics. We describe the general design of the device, its construction, and performance on the bench and in the experiment.

Observation of the centrality-dependent difference in directed flow between charged kaons and $K^{*0}$ resonances in Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\mathrm{NN}}}$ = 14.6, 19.6 and 27 GeV
First measurement of K*0 directed flow shows a centrality-dependent difference from charged kaons that hydro+UrQMD models attribute to asymmetric hadronic rescattering relative to the event plane.

First-Ever Deployment of a SiPM-on-Tile Calorimeter in a Collider: A Parasitic Test with 200 GeV $pp$ Collisions at RHIC
A SiPM-on-tile calorimeter prototype was deployed, calibrated, and operated for the first time in a collider environment, withstanding about 1e10 1-MeV neutron-equivalent fluence at room temperature.
