We analyse the role of the excited Baryonic spectrum in Quark Hadron Duality.
Statistical moments of particle multiplicities in heavy-ion collision experiments are an important probe in the exploration of the phase diagram of strongly-interacting matter and, particularly, in the search for the QCD critical endpoint. In order to appropriately interpret experimental measures of these moments, however, it is necessary to understand the role of experimental limitations, as...
We study the fluctuations and correlations of the average transverse momentum of particles emitted in heavy-ion collisions. The momentum fluctuations are related to event-by-event fluctuations of the size and entropy of the initial source. Hydrodynamic calculations using a Glauber model with quark degrees of freedom reproduce the data. We study correlation of the average transverse momentum...
We will illustrate how our recently developed
nonperturbative variational technique combined with renormalization group (RG) properties efficiently resums perturbative expansions in thermal field theories. The resulting convergence and scale dependence of optimized thermodynamical quantities are drastically improved as compared to standard perturbative expansions, as well as to other related...
