Investigating the QCD phase diagram with hadron multiplicities at NICA
arXiv:1602.05482 · doi:10.1140/epja/i2016-16234-7
Abstract
We discuss the potential of the experimental programme at NICA to investigate the QCD phase diagram and particularly the position of the critical line at large baryon-chemical potential with accurate measurements of particle multiplicities. We briefly review the present status and we outline the tasks to be accomplished both theoretically and the experimentally to make hadronic abundances a sensitive probe.
