  1. Non-conformal obstructions to bubble expansion

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Non-conformal equations of state introduce wall and flow obstructions that delete entire classes of bubble solutions and create 'shocked detonations', shrinking the allowed wall-velocity space and suppressing gravitat...

  2. Quarkyonic Stars with Strangeness

    nucl-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A three-flavor quarkyonic model with octet baryons yields stiffer neutron-star EOS and raises maximum masses, potentially resolving the hyperon puzzle.

  3. Unified Functional-Holographic Theory of the QCD Critical End Point

    hep-ph 2025-12 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    A coupled DSE-FRG-holographic model predicts the QCD critical end point at T_CEP approximately 130-135 MeV and mu_B,CEP approximately 600 MeV, with sensitivity to regulator and normalization choices.

  4. Diffusion of multiple conserved charges from entropy production

    hep-ph 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    Derives diffusion matrix elements for baryon, charge, and strangeness transport in relativistic hydrodynamics from entropy production within the relaxation-time approximation.

  5. Functional renormalization group study of the jet quenching parameter near the QCD critical end point

    hep-ph 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    fRG calculations show the jet quenching parameter hat q is enhanced above the chiral boundary and peaks near the QCD critical end point due to critical sigma fluctuations.

  6. CP-violating multi-field phase transitions and gravitational waves in a hidden NJL sector

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    Multi-field tunneling analysis in a CP-violating NJL model yields a slow transition (β/H ~ 100) whose stochastic gravitational-wave signal is detectable by μAres and insensitive to the CP angle.

  7. QCD phase transition at finite isospin density and magnetic field

    nucl-th 2026-03 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    In the NJL model, increasing isospin chemical potential favors pion superfluidity at small magnetic fields and rho superconductivity at large magnetic fields.

  8. Directed Flow of Protons and Deuterons in Xe+Cs(I) Collisions: Preliminary BM@N Data and THESEUS Modeling

    nucl-ex 2026-08 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    Comparing preliminary BM@N proton and deuteron directed flow with THESEUS shows good proton agreement and a slight deuteron overestimation, tentatively supporting thermodynamic light-nucleus formation.

  9. The $(2+1)$-dimensional Gross-Neveu-Yukawa model at finite temperature, density, and magnetic field within the Functional Renormalization Group

    hep-ph 2026-08 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    In the 2+1-dimensional Gross-Neveu-Yukawa model, magnetic fields cause oscillations and first-order transitions in the chiral phase boundary at high density and shift the tricritical point upward in temperature.

  10. Studying the QCD Matter produced in Heavy-Ion Collisions using the MUSES Calculation Engine

    nucl-th 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 3.0 of 10

    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...

  11. Spectral function for pions in magnetic field

    hep-ph 2026-01 unverdicted novelty 3.0 of 10

    Pion spectral functions in magnetic fields develop multi-peak structures for neutral pions from Landau levels and Landau cuts for charged pions, with decay widths narrowing at higher temperatures indicating increased ...

  12. Exploring the QCD phase diagram through correlations and fluctuations

    nucl-th 2025-12 accept novelty 3.0 of 10

    A synthesis of the QCD critical point search: theoretical estimates cluster at T_C≈100–120 MeV, μ_B≈550–650 MeV, and BES-II cumulant data match non-critical baselines above 10 GeV while 7.7–9 GeV deviations remain une...
