Leptonic decay of $\phi$(1020) meson measured with the STAR experiment
  We present the measurement of the $\phi$(1020)$\rightarrow e^{+}e^{-}$ transverse momentum spectrum and yield for $0.3 < p_{T} < 2.5$ GeV at mid-rapidity ($|y| < 1$) from the STAR experiment in Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{_{NN}}} = 200$ GeV and compare it to the yield and spectrum from the hadronic decays. We also compare the $\phi$(1020) mass and width obtained by fitting Breit-Wigner function to simulated values. Particle identification based on the newly installed STAR Time-Of-Flight (TOF) detector in conjunction with energy-loss (dE/dx) based particle identification measurements from the Time Projection Chamber (TPC) are used for a clean electron and positron identification.
