Theoretical and Experimental Constraints for the Equation of State of Dense and Hot Matter
read the original abstract
This review aims at providing an extensive discussion of modern constraints relevant for dense and hot strongly interacting matter. It includes theoretical first-principle results from lattice and perturbative QCD, as well as chiral effective field theory results. From the experimental side, it includes heavy-ion collision and low-energy nuclear physics results, as well as observations from neutron stars and their mergers. The validity of different constraints, concerning specific conditions and ranges of applicability, is also provided.

Is the coexistence of strange quark stars and hadronic stars favored by astrophysical data? A Bayesian analysis
Bayesian analysis of astrophysical and laboratory data favors the two-families scenario of coexisting hadronic and strange quark stars over the one-family scenario.

Four-dimensional QCD equation of state from a quasi-parton model with physics-informed neural networks
A PINN-trained quasi-parton model reproduces lattice cumulants at vanishing chemical potentials and supplies a consistent four-dimensional QCD equation of state at finite densities.

Scaling of the Surface Free Energy as a Probe of the QCD Critical Region
In a constructed QCD equation of state incorporating surface energy, critical exponents require temperature within 1% of the critical value, casting doubt on their measurability in heavy ion experiments.

Studying the QCD Matter produced in Heavy-Ion Collisions using the MUSES Calculation Engine
The MUSES Calliope engine computes multi-dimensional QCD equations of state, merges them consistently, and feeds them into viscous hydrodynamic simulations of heavy-ion collisions with movable critical points and crit...
