Signals of critical end point from jet quenching and quark energy loss in holographic QCD
arXiv:2504.04147 · doi:10.1103/52sx-qvy8
Abstract
The jet quenching parameter and energy loss of light and heavy quarks have been investigated in the framework of holographic QCD models with a critical end point (CEP) at finite baryon chemical potential in systems. The properties of the jet quenching parameter and energy loss around CEP have been carefully studied, and some evident signatures for CEP are subtracted. It is found that the dimensionless jet quenching parameter and the energy loss of light and heavy quarks exhibit evident features around CEP. Specifically, all these quantities increase rapidly near the CEP phase transition temperature with fixed . Moreover, the velocity dependent behavior of heavy quark energy loss at CEP differs significantly from charged particle energy loss in QED matter. For electromagnetic interaction, the energy loss of charged particle can be described by the Bethe-Bloch formula and the Lindhand-Scharff-Schiott theory at low and high velocities, respectively. However, the heavy quark energy loss at CEP is approximately proportional to velocity at low velocities and aligns with Bjorken's results at high velocities, which indicates that the heavy quark energy loss is predominantly collisional at low velocities and gluon radiation dominant at high velocities. For light quark energy loss, the behavior of the energy loss per unit length and the total energy loss differs significantly. However, the total energy loss and stopping distance exhibit similar behavior. This implies that the stopping distance predominantly determines the total energy loss. Thus, even with increased energy loss per unit length at higher temperatures or chemical potentials, the total energy loss decreases due to the reduced stopping distance.
