Enhancement of photon emission rate near QCD critical point
Yukinao Akamatsu, Masayuki Asakawa, Masaru Hongo +2
We compute photon emission rate enhancement near the QCD critical point using an effective theory of dynamic critical phenomena and derive a universal photon spectrum. The emission…
Schwinger-Keldysh effective action for hydrodynamics with approximate symmetries
Masaru Hongo, Noriyuki Sogabe, Mikhail A. Stephanov +1
We study the hydrodynamic theories with approximate symmetries in the recently developed effective action approach on the Schwinger-Keldysh (SK) contour. We employ the method of sp…
Relativistic fluctuations in stochastic fluid dynamics
Xin An, Gokce Basar, Mikhail Stephanov +1
The state-of-the-art theoretical formalism for a covariant description of non-Gaussian fluctuation dynamics in relativistic fluids is discussed.
The QCD phase diagram and Beam Energy Scan physics: a theory overview
Lipei Du, Agnieszka Sorensen, Mikhail Stephanov
We review recent theoretical developments relevant to heavy-ion experiments carried out within the Beam Energy Scan program at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider. Our main focus i…
Nonmonotonic specific entropy on the transition line near the QCD critical point
Maneesha Sushama Pradeep, Noriyuki Sogabe, Mikhail Stephanov +1
We investigate the effect of the quantum chromodynamics (QCD) critical point on the isentropic trajectories in the QCD phase diagram. We point out that the universality of the crit…
Spin relaxation rate for baryons in thermal pion gas
Yoshimasa Hidaka, Masaru Hongo, Mikhail Stephanov +1
We study the relaxation dynamics of the spin polarization of baryons (nucleon and -baryon), in a thermal pion gas as a simple model of the hadronic phase of the QCD plasma produ…
On spinodal points and Lee-Yang edge singularities
Xin An, David Mesterházy, Mikhail A. Stephanov
We address a number of outstanding questions associated with the analytic properties of the universal equation of state of the theory, which describes the critical behavior o…
Hydrodynamics of charge fluctuations and balance functions
B. Ling, T. Springer, M. Stephanov
We apply stochastic hydrodynamics to the study of charge density fluctuations in QCD matter undergoing Bjorken expansion. We find that the charge density correlations are given by…
Charged elliptic flow at zero charge asymmetry
Misha Stephanov, Ho-Ung Yee
The difference between the flow ellipticities of oppositely charged pions, Δv_2=v_2[π-]-v_2[π+], measured recently by STAR collaboration at RHIC shows a linear dependence on the ev…
