Taylor expansion of the equation of state of QCD
suffers from shortcomings at chemical potentials $\mu_B \geq (2-2.5)T$.
First, one faces difficulties inherent in performing such an expansion
with a limited number of coefficients; second,
higher order coefficients determined from
lattice calculations suffer from a poor signal-to-noise ratio.
We present a novel scheme for extrapolating...
The determination of freeze-out parameters from experimental data on particle yields and higher order cumulants crucially relies on thermodynamic relations known to be valid in hadron resonance gas models. In particular, the determination of chemical potentials at the time of freeze-out, obtained from ratios of first and second order cumulants, relies on the assumption that particle...
Using non-relativistic QCD techniques on finite temperature lattice configurations, we will present results pertaining to the fate of the Bottom and anti-Bottom quarkonium states of Υ(1S), Υ(2S) and Υ(3S) in Quark-Gluon-Plasma (QGP). We will present results on how the mass and spectral width of these states change with temperature. We will also show new results on how the finite temperature...
Second order susceptibilities $\chi^{11}_{ij}$ of baryon, electric, and strangeness, $B$, $Q$, and $S$, charges, are calculated in the Chiral Mean Field (CMF) model and compared to available lattice QCD data. The susceptibilities are sensitive to the short range repulsive interactions between different hadron species, especially to the hardcore repulsion of hyperons. Decreasing the hyperons...
Heavy quark transport coefficients calculated from first-principles QCD are a crucial input for transport models. Utilizing the heavy quark limit, we will discuss the results of a novel approach to nonperturbatively estimate the heavy quark momentum diffusion coefficient in a hot gluonic medium from gradient-flowed color-electric correlators on the lattice. Unlike others, this approach can be...
