We investigate the critical end point of QCD with two flavours of light dynamical quarks at finite lattice cutoff a=1/4T using a Taylor expansion of the baryon number susceptibility. We find a strong volume dependence of the position of the critical end point. In the large volume limit we obtain T^E/T_c \~ 0.95 and mu_B^E/T^E ~ 1.1, where T_c is the cross over temperature at zero chemical potential, and T^E and mu_B^E are the temperature and the baryon chemical potential at the critical end point. The small value of mu_B^E places it in the range of observability in energy scans at the RHIC.

  1. Normalized symmetric cumulants as a measure of QCD phase transition: a viscous hydrodynamic study

    hep-ph 2019-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A viscous hydrodynamic study shows that normalized symmetric cumulants of flow harmonics can discriminate a crossover QCD equation of state from a first-order one at 62.4 GeV Au+Au collisions.
