Largely based on slides by Vincenzo Greco
Big Bang
• e. m. decouple (T~ 1 eV , t ~ 3.105 ys)
“thermal freeze-out “
• but matter opaque to e.m. radiation
• Atomic nuclei (T~100 KeV, t ~200s)
“chemical freeze-out”
• Hadronization (T~ 0.2 GeV, t~ 10-2s)
• Quark and gluons
We’ll never see what happened at
t < 3 .105 ys (hidden behind the curtain of
the cosmic microwave background)

Similar to QED, but much richer structure:
 SU(3) gauge symmetry in color space
 Approximate Chiral Symmetry in the light sector
which is broken in the vacuum.
 UA(1) ciral
 Scale Invariance broken by quantum effects

• Chemical equilibrium with a limiting Tc ~170MeV
• Thermal equilibrium with collective behavior
- Tth ~120 MeV and <bT>~ 0.5
• Early thermalization ( < 1 fm/c,  ~ 10 GeV/fm3)
- very large v2
We have not just crashed 400 balls to get fireworks,
but we have created a transient state of plasma
A deeper understanding of the system
is certainly needed!
Signatures of quark-gluon plasma
 Dilepton enhancement (Shuryak, 1978)
 Strangeness enhancement (Meuller & Rafelski, 1982)
 J/ψ suppression (Matsui & Satz, 1986)
 Pion interferometry (Pratt; Bertsch, 1986)
 Elliptic flow (Ollitrault, 1992)
 Jet quenching (Gyulassy & Wang, 1992)
 Net baryon and charge fluctuations (Jeon & Koch;
Asakawa, Heinz & Muller, 2000)
 Quark number scaling of hadron elliptic flows (Voloshin
2002)
 ……………

• Low mass: thermal dominant
(calculated by Rapp in kinetic model)
• Inter. mass: charm decay
No signals for thermal
dileptons yet
Strangeness Enhancement
Basic Idea:
 Production threshold is lowered in QGP
In the QGP:
qq ss
 QQGP  2ms  250  300 MeV
g  g  s  s
Hadronic channels:
  K  K (Q  2mK  2m  710 MeV )
NN  NK
(Q  m  mK  mN  670 MeV )
N  K
(Q  m  mK  mN  m  530 MeV )
Equilibration timescale? How much time do we have?
QGP Scenario
Hadronic Scenario
Decreasing threshold in
a Resonance Gas
ND  NK (Q  380 MeV )
D  K (Q  240 MeV )
DD  NK (Q  90 MeV )
r   (Q  80 MeV )
To be weighted with
the abundances
npQCD calculation with quasi particle picture
and hard-thermal loop still gives t~5-10 fm/c

Au+Au @ 130 AGeV
Need string melting and large parton scattering cross section which may be
due to quasi bound states in QGP and/or multiparton dynamics (gg↔ggg)
Emission Function from AMPT
• Shift in out direction (<xout> > 0)
• Strong positive correlation between out position and emission time
• Large halo due to resonance (ω) decay and explosion
→ non-Gaussian source
Jet quenching
Decrease of mini-jet hadrons (pT> 2 GeV) yield,
because of in medium radiation.
Ok, what is a mini-jet?
why it is quenched ?

Quark gluon plasma was predicted to be a weakly
interacting gas of quarks and gluons
The matter created is not a firework of multiple minijets
 Strong Collective phenomena
Hydrodynamics describes well the bulk of the matter
Transport codes needs a quite large npQCD cross section
Charm quark interacts strongly in the plasma
Recent lattice QCD finds bound states of cc at T>Tc
Rethinking the QGP at Tc < T < 2Tc
“Strong” QGP
Summary
 Most proposed QGP signatures are observed at RHIC.
 Strangeness production is enhanced and is consistent with
formation of hadronic matter at Tc.
 Large elliptic flow requires large parton cross sections in transport
model or earlier equilibration in hydrodynamic model.
 HBT correlation is consistent with formation of strongly interacting
partonic matter.
 Jet quenching due to radiation requires initial matter with energy density
order of magnitude higher than that of QCD at Tc.
 Quark number scaling of elliptic flow of identified hadrons is consistent
with hadronization via quark coalescence or recombination.
 Studies are needed for electromagnetic probes and heavy flavor hadrons.
 Theoretical models have played and will continue to play essential roles
in understanding RHIC physics.
Conclusions
Matter with energy density too high for simple hadronic
phase (  > c from lattice)
Matter is approximately thermalized (T >Tc )
Jet quenching consistent with a hot and dense medium
described by the hydrodymic approach
Hadrons seem to have typical features of recombination
Strangeness enhancement consistent with grand canonical
ensemble
