Workshop on Excited Hyperons in QCD Thermodynamics at Freeze-Out (YSTAR2016) Mini-Proceedings

P. Alba, M. Amaryan, V. Begun +38

This Workshop brought top experts, researchers, postdocs, and students from high-energy heavy ion interactions, lattice QCD and hadronic physics communities together. YSTAR2016 dis…

Polyakov Loop and Gluon Quasiparticles in Yang-Mills Thermodynamics

M. Ruggieri, P. Alba, P. Castorina +3

We study the interpretation of Lattice data about the thermodynamics of the deconfinement phase of SU(3) Yang-Mills theory, in terms of gluon quasiparticles propagating in a backgr…

Lattice QCD-based equations of state at vanishing net-baryon density

M. Bluhm, P. Alba, W. Alberico +2

We present realistic equations of state for QCD matter at vanishing net-baryon density which embed recent lattice QCD results at high temperatures combined with a hadron resonance…

Flavor-dependent eigenvolume interactions in a hadron resonance gas

P. Alba, V. Vovchenko, M. I. Gorenstein +1

Eigenvolume effects in the hadron resonance gas (HRG) model are studied for experimental hadronic yields in nucleus-nucleus collisions. If particle eigenvolumes are different for d…

Parametrization for chemical freeze-out conditions from net-charge fluctuations measured at RHIC

M. Bluhm, P. Alba, W. Alberico +4

We discuss details of our thermal model applied to extract chemical freeze-out conditions from fluctuations in the net-electric charge and net-proton number measured at RHIC. A par…

Influence of hadronic resonances on the chemical freeze-out in heavy-ion collisions

P. Alba, V. Mantovani Sarti, J. Noronha-Hostler +4

Detailed knowledge of the hadronic spectrum is still an open question, which has phenomenological consequences on the study of heavy-ion collisions. A previous lattice QCD study co…
