Open Questions Formation of hot and dense matter is established. Still, we have many important questions to answer. • Is the matter deconfined? • J/y suppression • How does Heavy-flavor act? • Heavy flavor measurements • Is Chiral symmetry restored? • Vector meson • Radiation? Mass shift? • Di-lepton continuum Heavy Ion Cafe @ Hongo

Mass shift and/or modification of vector mesons are expected Lepton decays become good probes Not interacting “strongly.” However, we only see integrated information from all stages of collisions. QGP, Mixed, Hadron gas Comparisons between lepton decays and hadron decays in several collision systems are important Chiral Symmetry in Hadronic matter R. Rapp (Nucl.

Broadening of r meson makes continuum on the invariant mass of electron-positron pair In addition, thermal radiation by the system via quark anti-quark annihilation also makes continuum and it carries direct information from the matter. Matter is formed Deconfinement Thermalized Experimentally, combinatorial background is very large and must be subtracted properly. Also, useful for charm measurements electron-positron continuum • A prediction • R. Rapp, nucl-ex 0204003 Heavy Ion Cafe @ Hongo
