nQCD is the right theory of Strong Interactions (Wilczeck)
nNotoriously hard to calculate
nRegimes where QCD simplifies – Calculations
can be done
nHigh Q2
nWell Tested – pQCD
nHigh Temperature/Baryon Density
n RHIC and Lower energy Heavy Ion Physics
nObservables often difficult to
quantify and/or interpret
nHopes for a different situation
at RHIC!
nCold high baryon density QCD -
nice but not testable in the lab?
nHigh Gluon Densities at low-x
nReliable non-perturbative
calculations of experimental observables
nTestable in the laboratory :
lepton-A, pA
