"At extreme temperatures and pressures, quantum field theory predicts that quarks and gluons no longer bind tightly to each other – as they do in protons, neutrons and other hadrons. Instead, they are free to exist individually in an exotic quark–gluon plasma called deconfined quark matter."

Raises interesting questions indeed.
I look forward to reading about future discoveries.
