    "abstract": "Thermalization of quark matter and antiquark matter is studied with\nquark-quark-antiquark as well as quark-antiquark-antiquark elastic scatterings.\nSquared amplitudes of qqqbar to qqqbar and qqbarqbar to qqbarqbar at order\nalpha_s^4 are derived in perturbative QCD. Solved by a new technique, solutions\nof transport equations with the squared amplitudes indicate that the\nscatterings qqqbar to qqqbar and qqbarqbar to qqbarqbar shorten the\nthermalization time of quark matter and antiquark matter. It is emphasized that\nthree-parton and other multi-parton scatterings become important at the high\nparton number density achieved in RHIC Au-Au collisions.",
