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…

QCD thermodynamics through the crossover as a gas of confining strings with repulsive interactions

Yuki Fujimoto, Volodymyr Vovchenko

We investigate QCD thermodynamics in the intermediate-temperature regime using a gas of confining strings supplemented by excluded volume (EV) corrections. In this description, the…

Hadron resonance gas with density-dependent interactions for neutron stars and heavy-ion collisions

Volodymyr Vovchenko, Volodymyr Kuznietsov, Tripp Moss

We present a density-dependent generalization of the van der Waals hadron resonance gas model (DD-HRG) for describing both the hot hadronic matter created in heavy-ion collisions a…

Extraction of baryon number susceptibilities at finite density from heavy-ion collisions

Grégoire Pihan, Roman Poberezhniuk, Volodymyr A. Kuznietsov +1

We present, to our knowledge, the first Bayesian extraction of baryon number susceptibilities of QCD matter at finite baryon density from heavy-ion collision data on proton number…

Hadronic and partonic composition of QCD matter across the crossover

Artemiy Lysenko, Mark I. Gorenstein, Marek Gazdzicki +2

We construct a simple equation of state of strongly interacting matter at zero chemical potentials that provides a unified description of lattice QCD thermodynamics in terms of had…

Subensemble Acceptance Method 3.0: General Corrections to Cumulants from Exact Conservation Constraints

Roman Poberezhniuk, Volodymyr A. Kuznietsov, Grégoire Pihan +1

We present the subensemble acceptance method 3.0 (SAM-3.0), which corrects cumulants of an observable measured in a subsystem of a large system for the effect of exact global conse…

QCD critical surface from constant entropy contours

Hitansh Shah, Tristan Gyure, Anabella Leon +4

We provide the first mapping of the critical surface in (2+1)-flavor QCD in the full space, anchored on lattice QCD results at vanishing chemical potentials and o…

Studying the QCD Matter produced in Heavy-Ion Collisions using the MUSES Calculation Engine

Johannes Jahan, Kevin P. Pala, Yumu Yang +42

The equation of state of hot and dense matter is essential for describing heavy-ion collisions at all collision energies. Here, we explore the capabilities of the latest version of…

Electric charge fluctuations from lattice QCD in the continuum limit

Szabolcs Borsányi, Zoltán Fodor, Jana N. Guenther +5

Electric charge fluctuations allow comparisons between theory and experiment, but are elusive on the lattice due to severe cutoff effects. We use a 4HEX action to obtain $χ…

Canonical statistical hadronization with local baryon conservation for higher-order cumulants

Mario Ciacco, Sourav Kundu, Volodymyr A. Kuznietsov +2

We study higher-order cumulants of the conserved baryon number at the LHC within the canonical ensemble with local baryon conservation. We generalize the density correlations appro…

Disentangling baryon stopping and neutron skin effects in heavy-ion collisions

Grégoire Pihan, Volodymyr Vovchenko

We analyse the net baryon (B) and net electric charge (Q) stopping in heavy-ion collisions using the statistical model. Focusing first on isobar collisions and $\…

Lattice-based equation of state with a critical point from constant entropy contours and its comparison to effective QCD approaches

Hitansh Shah, Mauricio Hippert, Jorge Noronha +2

In this work, we systematically assess the performance of a new method from [H. Shah et al., Phys. Rev. C 113, L012201] for locating the QCD critical point using constant-entropy c…
