  2. New questions from RHIC & LHC data! • How is thermalization achieved so rapidly? • Are there quasiparticles in the quark gluon plasma? If so, when and what are they? • What is the mechanism for quark/gluon-plasma interactions? Plasma response? • Nature of QCD matter at low T but high ? • At what scales is the coupling strong? • Is there a relevant (color) screening length? • Are there novel symmetry properties? To answer these questions S. Esumi, sPHNIX for US-J, 21/Dec/2011, KEK

  7. Fluctuations close to the Critical Point higher moments of p-pbar distribution S. Gupta, QM2011 S. Esumi, sPHNIX for US-J, 21/Dec/2011, KEK

  8. Jet quenching with reconstructed jets Closer and closer to the initial parton energy Gamma trig. Jet (large R) trig. Jet (small R) trig. 0(hadron) trig. more and more surface bias given by energy loss S. Esumi, sPHNIX for US-J, 21/Dec/2011, KEK

  9. Energy dependence is a key tool for understanding RHIC provides a sweet spot Lattice calc. rare probe scan 50 < √sNN < 200 GeV asymmetric systems Au+Au , Cu+Au , U+U asymmetric energies S. Esumi, sPHNIX for US-J, 21/Dec/2011, KEK

  11. Jets in medium jet-reconstruction study • Capable with inclusive jets of ET=20~65 GeV and R=0.2~0.3 in central Au-Au • Lower energy and/or larger R jets for non-central Au-Au and light ions S. Esumi, sPHNIX for US-J, 21/Dec/2011, KEK
