TLDR
In this article, the authors provided thermodynamic quantities of pure SU(3) gauge theory in lattice approximation, which are thermodynamically selfconsistent, i.e., energy density and pressure are related via e = T∂p/∂T - p, and exhibit a striking difference from the popular bag model parametrization p = e/3 - 4B/3.

Heavy-ion collisions at the LHC-Last call for predictions

Néstor Armesto, +194 more
- 01 May 2008 - 
TL;DR: A compilation of predictions for the forthcoming Heavy Ion Program at the Large Hadron Collider, as presented at the CERN Theory Institute 'Heavy Ion Collisions at the LHC - Last Call for Predictions', held from 14th May to 10th June 2007, can be found in this article.
Journal ArticleDOI

The search for the quark-gluon plasma

TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide an overview of the present understanding of the transition from hadrons to a quark-gluon plasma, its signatures, and the experimental results so far.
Journal ArticleDOI

Family of equations of state based on lattice QCD: Impact on flow in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions

TL;DR: In this article, a family of equations of state within a quasiparticle model by relating pressure, energy density, baryon density, and susceptibilities adjusted to first-principles lattice QCD calculations are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Medium effects in strange quark matter and strange stars

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the properties of strange quark matter at zero temperature including medium effects and found that medium effects reduce the overall binding energy with respect to 56Fe of the quasiparticles.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chiral phase transition with a chiral chemical potential in the framework of Dyson-Schwinger equations

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the chiral phase transition of QCD with a chiral chemical potential and showed that the phase transition in the $T \ensuremath{l50\text{ }\text { }\mathrm{MeV}$ plane might be totally crossover when

Highly relativistic nucleus-nucleus collisions: The central rapidity region

TL;DR: In this paper, the space-time evolution of the hadronic matter produced in the central rapidity region in extreme relativistic nucleus-nucleus collisions is described, based on the existence of a flat central plateau and on the applicability of hydrodynamics.

Finite-temperature field theory

TL;DR: In this article, two Lagrange multipliers are introduced, beta = 1/kT and mu the chemical potential, for discussing the thermodynamics of a quantum field theory one uses the grand canonical formalism: the entropy S is maximised, keeping fixed the ensemble averages E and N of energy and particle number is not conserved.

Soft amplitudes in hot gauge theories: A general analysis

TL;DR: In this article, a systematic method for the calculation of amplitudes in hot gauge theories is developed, which is necessary to distinguish between hard momenta (of order T ) and soft momenta(of order gT ) over soft momentsa, effective propagators and vertices are required.
Journal ArticleDOI

Covariant Calculations at Finite Temperature: The Relativistic Plasma

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that finite-temperature calculations in field theory are manifestly Lorentz covariant at all stages if the Minkowski-space form of the temperature-dependent propagators is used and if the four-velocity of the heat bath is taken into account.
Journal ArticleDOI

Photon and dilepton emission from the quark-gluon plasma: Some general considerations.

TL;DR: It is argued that if there is a first order phase transition, as beam energy or nuclear baryon number is raised through the threshold for production of a plasma, the rate for photon or di-lepton emission might dramatically increase.
