Abstract

Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) is 50 years old. It was born in an atmosphere of skepticism toward the possibility that a local quantum field theory could ever describe the strong interaction. The experimental discoveries of the J/Psi and high-energy hadron jets, the establishment of asymptotic freedom, and the formulation of lattice QCD and effective field theories, among other facts, have changed the original skepticism about such a possibility. By now, the evidence that QCD is indeed the fundamental theory of strong interaction is overwhelming. Yet, we are far from understanding how it actually works. In this talk, I will focus on a couple of problems that challenge our understanding of QCD and get me out of bed in the morning.
