Variations of the crossover and first-order phase transition curve in modeling the QCD equation of state
Joseph I. Kapusta, Shensong Wan
Lattice QCD calculations have shown that the transition from hadrons to quarks and gluons is a rapid crossover at MeV at vanishing chemical potential. Many model calc…
Disoriented isospin condensates may be the source of anomalous kaon correlations measured in Pb-Pb collisions at TeV
Joseph I. Kapusta, Scott Pratt, Mayank Singh
The magnitude of fluctuations between charged and neutral kaons measured by the ALICE Collaboration in heavy-ion collisions at the LHC exceeds conventional explanation. Here it is…
Hot QCD White Paper
M. Arslandok, S. A. Bass, A. A. Baty +170
Hot QCD physics studies the nuclear strong force under extreme temperature and densities. Experimentally these conditions are achieved via high-energy collisions of heavy ions at t…
Dense Nuclear Matter Equation of State from Heavy-Ion Collisions
Agnieszka Sorensen, Kshitij Agarwal, Kyle W. Brown +133
The nuclear equation of state (EOS) is at the center of numerous theoretical and experimental efforts in nuclear physics. With advances in microscopic theories for nuclear interact…
Long Range Plan: Dense matter theory for heavy-ion collisions and neutron stars
Alessandro Lovato, Travis Dore, Robert D. Pisarski +61
Since the release of the 2015 Long Range Plan in Nuclear Physics, major events have occurred that reshaped our understanding of quantum chromodynamics (QCD) and nuclear matter at l…
Embedding a Critical Point in a Hadron to Quark-Gluon Crossover Equation of State
Joseph Kapusta, Tom Welle, Christopher Plumberg
It is shown how to embed a critical point in a smooth background equation of state so as to yield the critical exponents and critical amplitude ratios expected of a transition in t…
