Factorial cumulants of proton multiplicity near a critical point using maximum entropy freeze-out prescription
Jamie Karthein, Maneesha Pradeep, Krishna Rajagopal +2
We present the first application of the maximum-entropy freeze-out prescription to calculate factorial cumulants of proton multiplicities near the conjectured QCD critical point in…

Quantifying fluctuation signatures of the QCD critical point using maximum entropy freeze-out
Jamie M. Karthein, Maneesha Sushama Pradeep, Krishna Rajagopal +2
A key question about the QCD phase diagram is whether there is a critical point somewhere on the boundary between the hadronic and quark-gluon plasma phases, and if so where. Heavy…
