Conserved Charge Fluctuations in a Chiral Hadronic Model including Hadrons and Quarks

Philip Rau, Jan Steinheimer, Stefan Schramm +1

In this work the susceptibility coefficients of the strange and non-strange quark number of second and fourth order are presented. The results at zero baryonchemical potential are…

Phase Structure of QCD Matter in a Chiral Effective Model with Quarks

Philip Rau, Jan Steinheimer, Stefan Schramm

Using a unified hadron-quark effective model for the QCD equation of state, this paper studies the phase structure of strongly interacting matter in a wide range of temperature and…

QCD Equation of State From a Chiral Hadronic Model Including Quark Degrees of Freedom

Philip Rau, Jan Steinheimer, Stefan Schramm +1

This work presents an effective model for strongly interacting matter and the QCD equation of state (EoS). The model includes both hadron and quark degrees of freedom and takes int…

Chiral Hadronic Mean Field Model including Quark Degrees of Freedom

P. Rau, J. Steinheimer, S. Schramm +1

In an approach inspired by Polyakov loop extended NJL models, we present a nonlinear hadronic SU(3) sigma-omega mean field model augmented by quark degrees of freedom. By introduci…

Resonance States in an Effective Chiral Hadronic Model

P. Rau, J. Steinheimer, S. Schramm +1

With an effective chiral flavour SU(3) model we show the effect of hadronic resonances on the QCD phase diagram. We state that varying the resonance couplings to the scalar and vec…

Baryon Resonances in a Chiral Hadronic Model for the QCD Equation of State

Philip Rau, Jan Steinheimer, Stefan Schramm +1

In this paper we study the influence of hadronic resonances on the phase diagram calculated with an effective chiral flavour SU(3) model. We show that varying the couplings of the…

Directed, Elliptic and Triangular Flows in Asymmetric Heavy Ion Collisions

M. Bleicher, K. A. Bugaev, P. Rau +3

In this paper we propose to thoroughly investigate asymmetric nuclear collisions both in the fixed target mode at the laboratory energy below 5 GeV per nucleon and in the collider…

Conical Emission from Shock Waves in Ne(1-20 AGeV)+U Collisions

Philip Rau, Jan Steinheimer, Barbara Betz +3

The formation and propagation of high-density compression waves, e.g. Mach shock waves, in cold nuclear matter is studied by simulating high-energy nucleus-nucleus collisions of Ne…

Mach Cones and Hydrodynamic Flow: Probing Big Bang Matter in the Laboratory

Barbara Betz, Philip Rau, Horst Stöcker

A critical discussion of the present signals for the phase transition to quark-gluon plasma (QGP) is given. Since hadronic rescattering models predict much larger flow than observe…

Heavy-Quark Kinetics in the QGP at LHC

H. van Hees, V. Greco, R. Rapp

We present predictions for the nuclear modification factor and elliptic flow of D and B mesons, as well as of their decay electrons, in semicentral Pb-Pb collisions at the LHC. Hea…

Thermal Dileptons at LHC

H. van Hees, R. Rapp

We predict dilepton invariant-mass spectra for central 5.5 ATeV Pb-Pb collisions at LHC. Hadronic emission in the low-mass region is calculated using in-medium spectral functions o…

Hydrodynamic Flow and Jet Induced Mach Shocks at RHIC and LHC

Horst Stöcker, Barbara Betz, Philip Rau

We discuss the present collective flow signals for the phase transition to quark-gluon plasma (QGP) and the collective flow as a barometer for the equation of state (EoS). A study…
