Abstract

New directions for exploring QCD at future high-energy colliders are sketched. These include jets within jets, BFKL dynamics, soft and hard diffraction, searches for disoriented chiral condensate, and doing a better job on minimum bias physics. The new experimental opportunities include electron-ion collisions at HERA, a new collider detector at the C0 region of the TeVatron, and the FELIX initiative at the LHC. I. INTRODUCTION This talk is not meant to be a comprehensive overview of QCD. The emphasis here is simply on those aspects of QCD theory and phenomenology most relevant to the Snowmass mission, namely, (1) new-facility opportunities, (2) new, relatively unexplored, directions in QCD theory and/or experiment, and (3) the difficult areas of QCD which need to be data driven, but where the data is insufficient. Before entering into these somewhat specific and perhaps idiosyncratic topics, it must be put on the record that a large core region of theory and phenomenology is in quite...
