Description
A review of interrelation between those two fields consistes of two parts.
One covers recent progress in ``magnetic scenario", which treats QGP as
a dual plasma containing as quasiparticles not only quarks and gluons but
also magnetic monopoles, dominating the ensamble near $T_c$.
Recent account for monopoles contribution to jet quenching has solved
the problem with azimuthal distribution of it.
The second half describes recent works using semiclassical theory based
on ``instanton-dyons". Studies of their ensemble explains deconfinement
and chiral transitions in a different settings, with and without dynamical
quarks.
