Abstract

We determine the strength of the vector-type four-quark interaction in the entanglement Polyakov-extended Nambu-Jona-Lasinio (EPNJL) model from the results of recent lattice QCD simulations with two-flavor Wilson fermions. The quark-number density is normalized by the Stefan-Boltzmann limit for small baryon chemical potential and temperature higher than the pseudo-critical temperature of the deconfinement transition. The strength determined from the normalized quark-number density is for the strength of the scalar-type four-quark interaction. We explore the hadron-quark phase transition in the - plane, using the two-phase model consisting of the quantum hadrodynamics model for the hadron phase and the EPNJL model for the quark phase. When , the critical baryon chemical potential of the transition at zero is GeV that accounts for two solar mass measurements of neutron stars in the framework of the quark-hadron hybrid star model.
