abstract

The third moments of conserved charges, the baryon and electric charge numbers, and energy, as well as their mixed moments, carry more information on the state around the QCD phase boundary than previously proposed fluctuation observables and higher order moments. In particular, their signs give plenty of information on the location of the state created in relativistic heavy ion collisions in the temperature and baryon chemical potential plane. We demonstrate this with an effective model.

Cumulant dynamics in finite-memory diffusion

hep-th · 2026-06-01 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

Finite current relaxation introduces memory effects that suppress, shift, and reshape non-monotonic cumulant behavior relative to instantaneous equilibrium and Fickian diffusion, most visibly in higher-order cumulants.

    Recent net-proton cumulant ratios from RHIC BES-II data are compared to non-critical models from Lattice QCD, HRG, hydrodynamics and UrQMD, with volume fluctuation effects noted at fixed-target energies.
