1 1/6/02Gyulassy-1 The Space-Time Puzzle at RHIC  Instead of slowly burning QGP Log Dt~ R/v def >>R  Evidence for Sudden freezeout Dt << R !  Amazingly independent of 1< KE cm < 100 AGeV  Yet there is Huge v 2 ~0.15 out to 6 GeV, transverse flow, hadro equilibration, pbar > pi-, …

Smooth energy dependence in R long No immediate indication of very different physics Fit R long to: AGS: A = 2.19 +/-.05 SPS: A = 2.90 +/-.10 RHIC: A = 3.32 +/-.03 -- M.

16 1/6/02Gyulassy-16 See D. Teany, E. Shuryak The Thorn in Hydro’s side

17 1/6/02Gyulassy-17 Useful cartoon showing why HBT in AA is not easy to unfold MANY 8D x m -p n correlated geometries give same HBT radii P.Kolb, U. Heinz

21 1/6/02Gyulassy-21 Corrections P.Filip ?? Are Systematic Experimental Errors Under Control?

22 1/6/02Gyulassy-22 More work on Coulomb correction needed Better to show Uncorrected data and compare to corrected theory ! P.Filip

24 1/6/02Gyulassy-24 D. Teany, E. Shuryak Given Hydrodynamic HBT is surprisingly good agreement with R out,side ! However, R long is tooo longg!

25 1/6/02Gyulassy-25 New Attemps at sudden hadronization: Non-equilib Polyakov L(A) V(L) But does this really solve Rlong Is short? U.Heinz Is it consistent with small e-b-e fluctuations?

26 1/6/02Gyulassy-26 Closing Remarks: (Sorry no time for Event-by-Event fluct) RHIC HBT has posed a serious thorn in theory side V2, flow, hadron ratios are consistent with EULER hydro up to pT~2 GeV, but hydro fails at AGS, SPS Yet HBT pattern is ~uniform in energy High pt>2GeV tails reveal jet quenching through very dense opaque matter Yet hadronization is of short duration (only marginally consistent with hydro Rout,side) Bjorken flow seems dead with short Rlong! Is Landau resurrecting? Are we on wrong hydro/transport track? Non-equilib classical fields? Inhomogeneous turbulence? Also need to go back to basics and review HBT assumptions
