Phase transitions in a non-perturbative regime can be studied by ab initio Lattice Field
Theory methods. The status and future research directions for LFT investigations of Quantum …

We discuss our present knowledge of α s, the fundamental running coupling or effective
charge of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD). A precise understanding of the running of α s …

We present results for pseudo-critical temperatures of QCD chiral crossovers at zero and
non-zero values of baryon (B), strangeness (S), electric charge (Q), and isospin (I) chemical …

We calculated the QCD equation of state using Taylor expansions that include contributions
from up to sixth order in the baryon, strangeness and electric charge chemical potentials …

We review results for the phase diagram of QCD, the properties of quarks and gluons and
the resulting properties of strongly interacting matter at finite temperature and chemical …

Abstract The Beam Energy Scan Theory (BEST) Collaboration was formed with the goal of
providing a theoretical framework for analyzing data from the Beam Energy Scan (BES) …

Fluctuations of conserved quantities, such as baryon, electric charge, and strangeness
number, are sensitive observables in relativistic heavy-ion collisions to probe the QCD …

We report on broadly based systematic investigations of the modeling components for open
heavy-flavor diffusion and energy loss in strongly interacting matter in their application to …

The diffusion of heavy quarks through the quark–gluon plasma (QGP) as produced in high-
energy heavy-ion collisions has long been recognized as an excellent probe of its transport …

We present results for the equation of state in (2+ 1)-flavor QCD using the highly improved
staggered quark action and lattices with temporal extent N τ= 6, 8, 10, and 12. We show that …
