Oh, I do simplify a lot and hide myself under "Fundamental physics". You are absolutely right to call me out on that. :-) But lets think about one of the examples that you brought up:
> - Black hole information paradox
This is indeed a big question, but I would discard this in what I wrote since: What is the experiment here? There is theoretical evidence for the Black hole entropy, but even if we could create black holes, which has so far not been accomplished by the LHC, how would you measure it? It is a bit more difficult than a gas where you could deform it and measure temperature etc.
So this I would discard because I was considering discrepancies between theory and experiments.
> - Mechanism for...
some of these I would exclude in what I wrote because they might be explained by current theories, but it is just not known how exactly. Take ultra high energy cosmic rays, there are Shock-front acceleration mechanisms, Supernovae explosions etc that are candidates, and if I understand the formation of that unsolved problem correctly it is to among these candidates identify the correct one or the main one (or if the candidate is not among the ones we know now, find a new one and explain it).
