What we know: RHIC What we know
System appears thermally and chemically equilibrated This happens early <2 fm/c
Energy density high >10 GeV/fm3
parton energy loss is large viscosity/entropy, η/s is low ( conjecture ~1/4π?) DOF ~ “quasi-quarks”
General picture is stable since ~ 2004 More data since QM 2005 More theory A clearer view

How is the energy lost? The sQGP has enormous stopping power
rifle bullet stopped in a tissue Original idea – energy loss by gluon radiation In 2001, Dokshitzer and Kharzeev showed “dead
cone” effect charm quark small energy loss

What about heavy quarks? (electrons from c and b)
Charm high pT suppression is as strong as light hadrons!!!
Problem – difficult to reconcile with gluon radiative energy loss
theorists have to go back to the drawing board

Explanation: Recombination
Naively: recombine quasi-partons (“quasiquarks” – Gavai)
PT baryons pT 3 pT
mesons pT 2 pT
Problem: protons exhibit “jettiness”
+ Thermal spectrum = Large pbar/π
This implies that we begin in a “quasi-partonic” thermal system

What have we learned Jet quenching
Charm quark energy loss, pretty well established Viscosity
Charm flows – further evidence that viscosity is small (interactions are strong)
Recombination baryon to meson ratio seems to obey recombination scaling All particles seem seem to obey v2 recombination scaling. [, ;Ω]

Most things depend on Npart independent of species Why is J/ at y=0 different for Cu and Au? Corona? Might help in understanding suppression mechanism

Recombination predictions vs rapidity
Recombination ( Thews et al., nucl-th/0505055 ) predicts a narrower rapidity distribution with an increasing Npart.
Going from p+p to the most central Au+Au : no significant change seen in the shape of the rapidity distribution.
No recombinationAll recombination

RAA vs. pT in Au+Au/Cu+Cu
•Suppression of J/ψ yield at low pT in both Au+Au and Cu+Cu.•High pT J/ψ escape the medium? Leakage effect? [Phys. Lett. B 607 (2005)]
•Might one expect “pile up” at low pT for recombination+energy loss?

Questions What is the energy loss mechanism for hard quarks? Can we get a good measure of the initial temperature? Chiral Symmetry? Deconfinement? Any Clue? Is the CGC really the initial state for the sQGP Can we measure quantitatively the viscosity?
THEORY
More General Questions Do we understand why the interaction is so strong? Do we understand the DOF?
Interplay of theory and experiment – very important
both in the “CGC” and the “sQGP”

•What is the Physics I? QCD: Heavy Ion Physics and the sQGP
Heavy Ions Getting a picture of collision system
This is why the CAT scan so important. STM. Energy density (tomography) changes with rapidity large
rapidity coverage Calibrated probe: photon-jets – need large acceptance
Understanding deconfinement, Tc Recently lattice: J/ψ melts at >Tc
