Summary and open questions
• Conical emission of correlated particles.
Medium response to hard probes.
Suggests Mach cone shock waves.
– What distortion to Mach angle by medium?
– How to extract speed of sound? EOS?
• Ridge is uniform in pseudo-rapidity.
Likely medium itself at early time.
– Is it due to color flux tubes?
– What additional work to falsify this and other
models, or learn something from them?
