Quasi-particle model of strongly interacting matter
arXiv:hep-ph/0411319 · doi:10.1088/0954-3899/31/6/077
Abstract
The successful quasi-particle model is compared with recent lattice data of the coefficients in the Taylor series expansion of the excess pressure at finite temperature and baryon density. A chain of approximations, starting from QCD to arrive at the model expressions for the entropy density, is presented.
