Density fluctuations and a first-order chiral phase transition in non-equilibrium
C. Sasaki, B. Friman, K. Redlich
The thermodynamics of a first-order chiral phase transition is considered in the presence of spinodal phase separation using the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model in the mean field approxim…
Density fluctuations and chiral phase transition
K. Redlich, B. Friman, C. Sasaki
Based on an effective QCD Lagrangian we discuss the properties of charge density fluctuations in the vicinity of chiral phase transition. We explore thermodynamics in the presence…
Chiral phase transition in the presence of spinodal decomposition
C. Sasaki, B. Friman, K. Redlich
The thermodynamics of a first order chiral phase transition is considered in the presence of spinodal phase separation within the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio (NJL) model. The properties of…
Neutron matter at finite temperature
L. Tolos, B. Friman, A. Schwenk
We calculate the neutron matter equation of state at finite temperature based on low-momentum two- and three-nucleon interactions. The free energy is obtained from a loop expansion…
Exploring the QCD phase structure with density fluctuations
C. Sasaki, B. Friman, K. Redlich
We briefly summarize the properties of conserved charge fluctuations as a sensitive probe for the QCD phase transitions. We discuss the density fluctuations which play a significan…
