    We answer to 72 frequently asked questions about theories of multifractional spacetimes. Apart from reviewing and reorganizing what we already know about such theories, we discuss the physical meaning and consequences of the very recent flow-equation theorem on dimensional flow in quantum gravity, in particular its enormous impact on the multifractional paradigm. We will also get some new theoretical results about the construction of multifractional derivatives and the symmetries in the yet-unexplored theory TγT_\gamma, the resolution of ambiguities in the calculation of the spectral dimension, the relation between the theory TqT_q with qq-derivatives and the theory TγT_\gamma with fractional derivatives, the interpretation of complex dimensions in quantum gravity, the frame choice at the quantum level, the physical interpretation of the propagator in TγT_\gamma as an infinite superposition of quasiparticle modes, the relation between multifractional theories and quantum gravity, and the issue of renormalization, arguing that power-counting arguments do not capture the exotic properties of extreme UV regimes of multifractional geometry, where TγT_\gamma may indeed be renormalizable. A careful discussion of experimental bounds and new constraints are also presented.Comment: 1+106 pages, 3 figures, 9 tables, 245 references.

    Jet Structure of Baryon Excess in Au+Au Collisions at sqrt(S_NN) = 200 GeV

    396 authors, 6 pages text, 4 figures, RevTeX 4. To be submitted to PRL. Plain text data tables for the points plotted in figures for this and previous PHENIX publications are (or will be) publicly available at http://www.phenix.bnl.gov/papers.html - EITwo particle correlations between identified meson and baryon trigger particles with 2.5 < p_T < 4.0 GeV/c and lower p_T charged hadrons have been measured at midrapidity by the PHENIX experiment at RHIC in p+p, d+Au and Au+Au collisions at sqrt(s_NN) = 200 GeV. The probability of finding a hadron near in azimuthal angle to the trigger particle is almost identical for leading mesons and baryons for non-central Au+Au. The yield for both trigger baryons and mesons is significantly higher in Au+Au than in p+p and d+Au, except for trigger baryons in central collisions. The baryon excess is likely to arise predominantly from hard scattering processes
