SUMMARY:Many-body high energy QCD: from wee partons to the perfect flu
 id\, NPAC (Nuclear/Particle/Astro/Cosmo) Forum\, Raju Venugopalan\, Br
 ookhaven National Laboratory
DESCRIPTION:A high energy hadron can be visualized as a Lorentz contra
 cted core of valence partons accompanied by a furry sea of wee partons
 . The many-body properties of these wee <br>\npartons and their evolu
 tion with energy can be described by a weak coupling effective field t
 heory called the Color Glass Condensate (CGC). Novel factorization the
 orems allow us to understand quantitatively the early time <br>\ndyna
 mics of heavy-ion collisions when two CGCs shatter forming a classical
  fluid called the Glasma. We discuss the properties of this Glasma and
  some of its experimental manifestations in heavy-ion collisions. <br>
 \nIf time permits\, we shall outline outstanding conceptual issues in
  understanding the evolution of the Glasma into the Quark-Gluon Plasma
 .
