TOF: Correlations, Fluctuations, Partonic Collectivity, Open Charn, Vector meson (->e+e-), lepton, di-lepton spectra, away-side jet fragmentation, exotica searches, helicity correlations,
Microvertex: Heavy quark production with identification via slightly displaced vertices; D yields & flow to test degree of thermalization & partonic collectivity; c- and b-quark energy loss in partonic matter.
DAQ/FEE: Acquisition of very large data samples for precision and rare process studies: e.g., b-quark jet quenching; CP violation search via spin correlations opposite a high-pT hadron; HBT.
Inner/Forward Tracking Upgrade: W± production and charge sign discrimination in polarized pp collisions, especially in endcap region, for kinematically clean distinction of flavor-dependence of sea antiquark vs. valence quark polarizations in proton.
Forward Hadron Calorimeter: Jet reconstruction at high pseudorapidity: CGC monojet search in d(p) + A; isolation of fragmentation effects in large single-spin transverse asymmetries in pp 0 production.
Robust Tracking in High Luminosity RHIC II era: High luminosity studies of - and heavy-quark tagged jets; HBT.
