Closing Remarks: (Sorry no time for Event-by-Event fluct) • RHIC HBT has posed a serious thorn in theory side • V 2, flow, hadron ratios are consistent with EULER hydro up to p. T~2 Ge. V, but hydro fails at AGS, SPS Yet HBT pattern is ~uniform in energy • High pt>2 Ge. V 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? 1/6/02 • Also need to go back to basics and review HBT assumptions 26
