Testing strong isospin breaking effects in QCD thermodynamics

D. A. Clarke, B. B. Brandt

Most modern lattice QCD calculations take the masses of the light quarks to be degenerate, setting , a choice that, while not physical, increases computational efficiency…

Detecting Lee-Yang/Fisher singularities by multi-point Padè

F. Di Renzo, D. A. Clarke, P. Dimopoulos +4

The Bielefeld Parma Collaboration has in recent years put forward a method to probe finite density QCD by the detection of Lee-Yang singularities. The location of the latter is obt…

QCD material parameters at zero and non-zero chemical potential from the lattice

D. A. Clarke, J. Goswami, F. Karsch +1

Using an eighth-order Taylor expansion in baryon chemical potential, we recently obtained the (2+1)-flavor QCD equation of state (EoS) at non-zero conserved charge chemical potenti…

Streamlined data analysis in Python

Luis Altenkort, David Anthony Clarke, Jishnu Goswami +1

Python is a particularly appealing language to carry out data analysis, owing in part to its user-friendly character as well as its access to well maintained and powerful libraries…

Isothermal and isentropic speed of sound in (2+1)-flavor QCD at non-zero baryon chemical potential

D. A. Clarke

Recently interest in calculations of the speed of sound in QCD under conditions like constant temperature or constant entropy per net baryon number arose in the dis…

Equation of state and speed of sound of (2+1)-flavor QCD in strangeness-neutral matter at non-vanishing net baryon-number density

D. Bollweg, D. A. Clarke, J. Goswami +6

We update results on the QCD equation of state in (2+1)-flavor QCD with non-zero conserved charge chemical potentials obtained from an eighth-order Taylor series. We present result…

Detecting critical points from Lee-Yang edge singularities in lattice QCD

Christian Schmidt, David A. Clarke, Petros Dimopoulos +5

A new approach is presented to explore the singularity structure of lattice QCD in the complex chemical potential plane. Our method can be seen as a combination of the Taylor expan…

Imprint of chiral symmetry restoration on the Polyakov loop and the heavy quark free energy

David Anthony Clarke, Olaf Kaczmarek, Frithjof Karsch +2

The Polyakov loop expectation value is an order parameter of the deconfinement transition in the heavy quark mass regime, whereas its sensitivity to the deconfin…

Sensitivity of the Polyakov loop to chiral symmetry restoration

David Anthony Clarke, Olaf Kaczmarek, Anirban Lahiri +1

In the heavy, static quark mass regime of QCD, the Polyakov loop is well known to be an order parameter of the deconfinement phase transition; however, the sensitivity of the Polya…

Sensitivity of the Polyakov loop and related observables to chiral symmetry restoration

David Anthony Clarke, Olaf Kaczmarek, Frithjof Karsch +2

While the Polyakov loop is an order parameter of the deconfinement transition in the heavy quark mass regime of QCD, its sensitivity to the deconfinement of light, dynamical quarks…

Polyakov Loop Susceptibility and Correlators in the Chiral Limit

David A. Clarke, Olaf Kaczmarek, Frithjof Karsch +1

In quenched QCD the Polyakov loop is an order parameter of the deconfinement transition, but with decreasing quark mass, the peak in the Polyakov loop susceptibility becomes less p…
