Analytic structure of the QCD phase diagram in the complex-temperature plane
Gokce Basar, Vladimir V. Skokov
We study the analytic structure of the QCD phase diagram by treating temperature as a complex variable. The nearest Yang-Lee edge singularities in the complex plane bound the d…
Non-Gaussian hydrodynamic fluctuations in an expanding relativistic fluid
Gokce Basar, Shuo Song
We consider non-equilibrium evolution of non-Gaussian fluctuations in a hydrodynamic system undergoing a boost-invariant expansion described by Bjorken flow. We derive the evolutio…
Recent developments in relativistic hydrodynamic fluctuations
Gokce Basar
The study of thermal fluctuations in relativistic hydrodynamics has led to numerous important developments in the last decade. We present a bird's eye view of the recent advances o…
Heavy-dense QCD, sign optimization and Lefschetz thimbles
Gokce Basar, Joseph Marincel
We study the heavy-dense limit of QCD on the lattice with heavy quarks at high density. The effective three dimensional theory has a sign problem which is alleviated by sign optimi…
On the QCD critical point, Lee-Yang edge singularities and Pade resummations
Gokce Basar
We analyze the trajectory of the Lee-Yang edge singularities of the QCD equation of state in the complex baryon chemical potential () plane for different values of the tempera…
Non-Gaussian fluctuation dynamics in relativistic fluids
Xin An, Gokce Basar, Mikhail Stephanov +1
We consider non-equilibrium evolution of non-Gaussian fluctuations within relativistic hydrodynamics relevant for the QCD critical point search in heavy-ion collision experiments.…
