Gluon Saturation and the “Color Glass Condensate” A new experimental direction for “QCD at RHIC”

Conclusions

npA presents this community with a new vista of QCD research

nMore specifically – the realm of high gluon density

nthis region has the potential to give experimentalists, firm, experimentally verifiable non-perturbative predictions

nThe simplest of these can be tested with the present machine/experiments

nThere may be a host of new phenomena (ala condensed matter, many body physics) associated with this regime of QCD, which will become understandable as experiments progress.
