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...

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...
