  2. Phases of Matter 火水土 (gas) (liquid) (solid) Bose-Einstein condensate, fermionic condensate, superfluids, supersolids, paramagnetic, ferromagnetic, liquid crystals, … Quark-gluon Plasma (QGP)

  3. Quark-gluon Plasma (QGP) Discovery of asymptotic freedom of QCD: Gross, Wilczek and Politzer (1973) Weakly interacting quarks at high density and temperature First concept of QGP in early universe, neutron star core and change of the vacuum structure at high temperature Lee and Wick,(1974); Collins and Perry (1975); Baym and Chin (1976)

  4. QCD Theory • SU(3) gauge symmetry (non-Abelian) • Asymptotic freedom at short distance • Confinement at long distance • Scale invariance and anomaly • Chiral symmetry and its spontaneous breaking • Goldstone boson and chiral condensate • UA(1) symmetry and anomaly
