On the phase diagram of QCD at finite isospin density
Ph. de Forcrand, M. A. Stephanov, U. Wenger
Using a canonical formalism, we determine the equation of state and the phase diagram of eight-flavour QCD, as a function of temperature and isospin density. Two mechanisms are at…
QCD phase diagram: an overview
M. A. Stephanov
The aim of this review is to summarize the contemporary understanding of the QCD phase diagram as a function of temperature and baryo-chemical potential. The focus is on recent the…
QCD Critical Point and Complex Chemical Potential Singularities
M. A. Stephanov
The thermodynamic singularities of QCD in the plane of complex baryo-chemical potential mu are studied. Predictions are made using scaling and universality arguments in the vicinit…
Random Matrices and the Convergence of Partition Function Zeros in Finite Density QCD
M. A. Halasz, J. C. Osborn, M. A. Stephanov +1
We apply the Glasgow method for lattice QCD at finite chemical potential to a schematic random matrix model (RMM). In this method the zeros of the partition function are obtained b…
Ginzburg Criterion for the Chiral Transition
M. A. Stephanov
This report is based on the work done together with J.B. Kogut and C.G. Strouthos. We study a Yukawa theory with spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking and with a large number N of f…
Critical region of the finite temperature chiral transition
J. B. Kogut, M. A. Stephanov, C. G. Strouthos
We study a Yukawa theory with spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking and with a large number N of fermions near the finite temperature phase transition. Critical properties in such a…
