Four-dimensional QCD equation of state with a critical surface from contours of constant entropy density
Tristan Gyure, Hitansh Shah, Lorenzo Formaggio +4
We present a new lattice-QCD-based equation of state in the four-dimensional space of which features a critical surface. This is obtained by generalizing the expa…

Fluctuation--response relations from an emergent symmetry in the rotating stochastic Landau model
Dhruv Kush, Nicki Mullins, Mauricio Hippert +1
In this work, we investigate the extent to which fluctuation--response relations emerge from coarse-grained stochastic dynamics alone, and which aspects instead depend on additiona…
