Description

At finite baryon density lattice QCD first-principle calculations can not be
performed due to the sign problem. In order to circumvent this problem, we
use the canonical approach, which provides reliable analytical continuation
from the $\mu_q^{Im.}$ region to the real chemical potential region. We briefly
present the canonical partition function method, describe our formulation, and
show the results, obtained for two temperatures: $T/T_c = 1.35$ and $T/T_c = 0.93$
in lattice QCD with two flavors of improved Wilson fermions.
