Scaling of the Surface Free Energy as a Probe of the QCD Critical Region

Joseph I. Kapusta, Mayank Singh, Shensong Wan

The QCD phase diagram is expected to have a critical point that separates the crossover and first-order transition lines. A realistic model that incorporates phase boundary effects…

Relativistic hydrodynamics with spinodal decomposition

Joseph Kapusta, Mayank Singh, Thomas Welle

We introduce the equations of relativistic hydrodynamics that incorporate phase separation via spinodal decomposition. These equations consider surface effects between the two phas…

Spinodal decomposition in Bjorken flow

Joseph Kapusta, Mayank Singh, Thomas Welle

The QCD first-order phase transition at large baryon densities is expected to proceed by spinodal decomposition. This spinodal phase is likely to leave its signatures on the experi…

Disoriented isospin condensates in heavy-ion collisions

Joseph Kapusta, Scott Pratt, Mayank Singh

Anomalous neutral to charged kaon correlations measured by the ALICE collaboration have defied usual explanations. We propose that the large fluctuations could arise because of a d…

Relaxation times for disoriented isospin condensates in high energy heavy ion collisions

Olivia Chabowski, Joseph I. Kapusta, Mayank Singh

Fluctuations between charged and neutral kaons measured by the ALICE Collaboration in Pb-Pb collisions at the LHC exceed conventional explanations. Previously it was shown that if…

Covariant formulation of spinodal decomposition in rapidly expanding quark gluon plasma

Joseph I. Kapusta, Mayank Singh, Thomas Welle

Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) is expected to have a first order phase transition between the confined hadron gas and the deconfined quark gluon plasma at high baryon densities. This…

Anomalous kaon correlations measured in Pb-Pb collisions at the LHC as evidence for the melting and refreezing of the QCD vacuum

Joseph Kapusta, Scott Pratt, Mayank Singh

Measurements of the dynamical correlations between neutral and charged kaons in central Pb-Pb collisions at TeV by the ALICE Collaboration display anomalous…

Disoriented isospin condensates may be the source of anomalous kaon correlations measured in Pb-Pb collisions at TeV

Joseph I. Kapusta, Scott Pratt, Mayank Singh

The magnitude of fluctuations between charged and neutral kaons measured by the ALICE Collaboration in heavy-ion collisions at the LHC exceeds conventional explanation. Here it is…

Dense Nuclear Matter Equation of State from Heavy-Ion Collisions

Agnieszka Sorensen, Kshitij Agarwal, Kyle W. Brown +133

The nuclear equation of state (EOS) is at the center of numerous theoretical and experimental efforts in nuclear physics. With advances in microscopic theories for nuclear interact…
