Abstract
We investigate the large photon v2 puzzle and the two time scales of thermal and chemical equilibrium in heavy ion collisions. The two-time-scale picture has a weak effect on the transverse moemntum spectrum of direct photons, but a strong effect on the elliptic flow of direct photons. Thus both the spectrum and the elliptic flow of direct photons may be explained with hydro evolution constrained with hadron data. In such a picture, a gluon dominant matter appears in heavy ion collisions. This new matter may impact strongly to other fields such as astrophysics and cosmology.
