Abstract

We review recent progress toward understanding of sQGP. The phenomenological part includes discussion of elliptic and conical flows at RHIC. Then we proceed to first quantum mechanical studies of manybody states at T>Tc, the “polymeric chains” and baryons. A new model for sQGP is a classical dynamical system, in which color vector is changed via the Wong equation. First Molecular Dynamics (MD) results for its diffusion and viscosity are reported. Finally we speculate how strong correlations in matter may help solve puzzles related to jet quenching, both the magnitude and angular distribution.
