Stirling QCD Calculations in String Approach Cachazo, Svrcek & Witten • Maximal helicity-violating (MHV) amplitudes as effective vertices in a new scalar graph approach • use them with scalar propagators to calculate • tree-level non-MHV amplitudes • with both quarks and gluons • … and loop diagrams! • dramatic simplification: compact output in terms of familiar spinor products • phenomenology? multijet cross sections at LHC, etc. underway
Dunlop QCD phase diagram Hadron gas
Dunlop Particle Production Ratios Well described by simple thermodynamic model, T ~ lattice … … but could these just be phase space and statistics?
Peripheral Collisions z y x Anisotropic Flow but hydrodynamic model fails to reproduce HBTsource size Dunlop Elliptic Flow: the Shape of the Interaction Region at RHIC Shape parameter v2 Reproduced well by hydrodynamic model
Dunlop Hadron Elliptic Flows Scale with Quark Number
Dunlop Jet Quenching @ RHIC … … due to parton energy loss in QGP?
Dunlop The State of Heavy-Ion Theory • A patchwork, with model parameters adjusted independently for different observables. • Statistical equilibriation or phase space? • Hydrodynamical model: EOS vs realistic quark-gluon calculations? • Source size as measured by HBT? • Parton energy loss: promising development! • Watch out for J/ψ suppression! • For compelling QGP claim, need quantitative estimates of theoretical uncertainties
Questions on Hadron Spectroscopy • Do (which) pentaquarks exist? • Do other exotic hadrons exist? • What are the quark descriptions of the DsJ(2317) and DsJ(2460)? • Does the DsJ(2632) exist (SELEX)? • What is the quark description of the X(3872)? • Interpretation of threshold reported states? • Fate of 12% rule in ψ’ decay (BES)?
Jin Some Sightings of the Θ+(1530) … … but many negative searches
Inconsistencies in Mθand Γθ? Jin (LEPS) M(nK+)≠ M(pKs)? Also width of θ+(1540) - Two “positive” experiments: HERMES: Γθ= 17 9 2 MeV ZEUS: Γθ= 8 4 MeV K+N PWA indicates Γθ< 1 MeV
Jin How Significant are Negative Results? • Compare with production of other baryons resonances • Λ(1520) may not be most reliable guide • Most positive results at lower energies • Different production mechanisms for exotic baryons?
Close Interpretations of θ+(1530) – if it exists • Naïve non-relativistic quark model would need epicycles: di/triquarks, P-wave ground state • Predicted in chiral soliton model: fits data, predicts other exotic states • Existence requires confirmation: a high-statistics, -significance experiment • If it exists, θ+ spin & parity distinguish models ← Based on idea that quarks weigh << ΛQCD The stakes are high: the θ+(Ξ, θc) may take us beyond the naïve quark model

Flavour Physics: Some Questions • Are the data on quark mixing described by the CKM model? • Are there signatures of physics beyond the SM? • If not, why is new physics flavour-blind? • Why is neutrino mixing so different from quark mixing? • Can they be related?

Neutrino Masses & Oscillations • First confirmed physics beyond SM • LSND? Waiting for MiniBooNE • (Near) bimaximal mixing ≠ quarks: Is there a relation: θν+θc = π/4? Reactors for θ13? • Dirac or Majorana masses: seesaw? Normal or inverted hierarchy? ββ0ν? • Holy Grail: CP violation via phase δ? Indirect relation to cosmology via baryogenesis? • Search for violation of charged lepton numbers Langacker

Physics beyond the SM • The most pressing issue is breaking EW symmetry • Must be solved below 1 TeV energy • Would be a revolution in fundamental physics • Basis for any further theoretical speculations • Hints of grand unification: gauge couplings, neutrino masses, but wait and see • String unification is still the dream Barbieri
Breaking Electroweak Symmetry • Calculability principle: EW scale should be calculable in terms of other mass scale • No quadratic divergences: supersymmetry ? or Higgs as pseudo-Goldstone boson ? • Supersymmetry: also gauge unification and dark matter • LEP data: some fine-tuning needed Barbieri
Alternatives to Supersymmetry • Interpretation of EW data? consistency of measurements?Discard some? • Higgs + higher-dimensional operators? corridors to higher Higgs masses? • Little Higgs models extra `Top’, gauge bosons, `Higgses’ • Higgsless models strong WW scattering, extra D? Barbieri
Little Higgs Models • Embed SM in larger gauge group • Higgs as pseudo-Goldstone boson • Cancel top loop with new heavy T quark • New gauge bosons, Higgses • Higgs light, other new physics heavy MT < 2 TeV (mh / 200 GeV)2 MW’ < 6 TeV (mh / 200 GeV)2 MH++ < 10 TeV Not as complete as susy: more physics > 10 TeV
