Possible Resolutions of the D-Paradox

Abstract

We propose possible ways of explaining the net charge event-by-event fluctuations in Au+Au collisions at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider within a quark recombination model. We discuss various methods of estimating the number of quarks at recombination and their implications for the predicted net charge fluctuations. We also discuss the possibility of diquark and quark-antiquark clustering above the deconfinement temperature.
