MUSES workflows for pQCD constraints on dense matter with finite quark masses
Isabella Danhoni, Mateus Reinke Pelicer, Débora Mroczek +3
We present a modular implementation of next-to-leading order (NLO) perturbative QCD (pQCD) thermodynamics with finite strange quark mass in the MUSES Calculation Engine, enabling r…
A finite temperature framework for quark matter with color-superconducting phases
Hosein Gholami, Marco Hofmann, Débora Mroczek +1
Current observations of neutron stars and measurements of gravitational waves only provide constraints on the zero temperature () equation of state (EoS) of dense matter. The…
BSQ Conserved Charges in Relativistic Viscous Hydrodynamics solved with Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics
Christopher Plumberg, Dekrayat Almaalol, Travis Dore +8
Conservation laws play a crucial role in the modeling of heavy-ion collisions, including the those for charges such as baryon number (B), strangeness (S), and electric charge (Q).…
