2. S. Esumi, sPHNIX for US-J, 21/Dec/2011, KEK2 New questions from RHIC & LHC data! How is thermalization achieved so rapidly? Are there quasiparticles in the quark gluon plasma? If so, when and what are they? What is the mechanism for quark/gluon- plasma interactions? Plasma response? Nature of QCD matter at low T but high  ? At what scales is the coupling strong? Is there a relevant (color) screening length? Are there novel symmetry properties? To answer these questions
