29. Review of intermittency analyses at NA61/SHINE

Tobiasz Czopowicz (Jan Kochanowski University, Warsaw University of Technology)

The existence and location of the QCD critical point is an object of both experimental and theoretical studies. The comprehensive data collected by the NA61/SHINE during a two-dimensional scan in beam momentum (13A-150A GeV/c) and system size (p+p, p+Pb, Be+Be, Ar+Sc, Xe+La, Pb+Pb) allows for a systematic search for the critical point – a search for a non-monotonic dependence of...

40. Equilibrium and dynamic lensing effects near a critical point in the QCD phase diagram

Travis Dore (University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign)

In this work, we study the effects that different critical regions have on hydrodynamic trajectories both with and without viscous effects. Implementing the parametrized BEST collaboration equation of state [1,2], we find that the size and shape of the critical region is an important factor in determining whether the system will experience critical effects for a variety of initial conditions....

56. Lattice study of the critical point in heavy-quark QCD

Masakiyo Kitazawa

12/1/22, 4:40 PM

We study phase structure and critical point of QCD with heavy quarks at nonzero temperature by lattice QCD Monte Carlo simulations. We perform numerical simulations with large spatial volumes up to the aspect ratio $N_s/N_t=15$. The large spatial volume allows us to investigate the scaling behavior around the critical point in detail. To realize the large-volume simulations, we employ rather...
