The hadron resonance gas model: thermodynamics of QCD and Polyakov loop
E. Megias, E. Ruiz Arriola, L. L. Salcedo
We study the hadron resonance gas model and describe the equation of state of QCD and the vacuum expectation value of the Polyakov loop in the confined phase, in terms of hadronic…
From Chiral quark dynamics with Polyakov loop to the hadron resonance gas model
E. Ruiz Arriola, E. Megias, L. L. Salcedo
Chiral quark models with Polyakov loop at finite temperature have been often used to describe the phase transition. We show how the transition to a hadron resonance gas is realized…
Anomalous Transport from Kubo Formulae
Karl Landsteiner, Eugenio Megias, Francisco Pena-Benitez
Chiral anomalies have profound impact on the transport properties of relativistic fluids. In four dimensions there are different types of anomalies, pure gauge and mixed gauge-grav…
The Polyakov loop and the hadron resonance gas model
E. Megias, E. Ruiz Arriola, L. L. Salcedo
The Polyakov loop has been used repeatedly as an order parameter in the deconfinement phase transition in QCD. We argue that, in the confined phase, its expectation value can be re…
