Quantum Chromodynamics

1) Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) is the established theory of strongly interacting matter.

2) Gluons hold quarks together to from hadrons:

3) Gluons and quarks, or partons, typically exist in a color singlet state: confinement.

EoS Parameters at RHIC

In central Au+Au collisions at RHIC - partonic freeze-out:

*Tpfo = 165 ± 10 MeV weak centrality dependence

vpfo ≥ 0.2 (c)

- hadronic freeze-out:*Tfo = 100 ± 5 (MeV) strong centrality

dependence

vfo = 0.6 ± 0.05 (c)

Systematic studies are needed to understand the centrality dependence of the EoS parameters * Thermalization assumed

Symposium, Heidelberg, 12 Dec 2006 Kai Schweda

Quark Masses

1) Higgs mass: electro-weak symmetry breaking. (current quark mass)

2) QCD mass: Chiral symmetry breaking. (constituent quark mass)

Strong interactions do not

affect heavy-quark masses.

Important tool for studying properties of the hot/dense medium at RHIC.

Test pQCD predictions at RHIC and LHC.
