4. QCD critical point, conserved and nonconserved charge fluctuations, and final state interactions

Masayuki Asakawa (Osaka University)

We examine some of proposed experimental signals for the QCD critical point and QCD phase transition. We then argue that final interaction effects are very important in relating physical quantities around the critical point or in the quark-gluon plasma to experimental observables. Finally, we show that it is possible to reconstruct baryon number cumulants at chemical freezeout from observed...

9. Plasmino and Thermal mass in hQCD.

We consider the self-energy of strongly interacting quarks and baryons in the medium using gauge/gravity duality of D4/D8 system. We study the mass generation of the thermal and/or dense medium and the collective excitations including plasmino, by considering the spectral function of fermion and its dispersion relation. The result is compared with those of the hard thermal loop method. For...

15. Finite coupling correction to heavy quark potential and jet quenching parameter from AdS/CFT

Prof. Defu Hou (Central China Normal University)

Heavy-quark potential and jet quenching parameter are quantities of importance for high energy heavy-ion collsion physics and the quark matter. The former can probe the confinement mechanism in the hadronic phase and meson melting in the plasma phase while the later can measure the energy loss of the jet penetrating through the medium. Most of the previous studies from AdS/CFT are for large...
