Quantum Chromodynamics, the theory of quarks and gluons, whose interactions can be
described by a local SU (3) gauge symmetry with charges called “color quantum numbers” …

The renormalization group plays an essential role in many areas of physics, both
conceptually and as a practical tool to determine the long-distance low-energy properties of …

We review the present status of the search for a phase transition and critical point as well as
anomalous transport phenomena in Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD), with an emphasis …

We provide the most accurate results for the QCD transition line so far. We optimize the
definition of the crossover temperature T c, allowing for its very precise determination, and …

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 …

Recent studies based on lattice Monte Carlo simulations of quantum chromodynamics
(QCD)—the theory of strong interactions—have demonstrated that at high temperature there …

We discuss the phase structure of QCD for N f= 2 and N f= 2+ 1 dynamical quark flavors at
finite temperature and baryon chemical potential. It emerges dynamically from the …

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 …

Nonmonotonic variation with collision energy (s NN) of the moments of the net-baryon
number distribution in heavy-ion collisions, related to the correlation length and the …

We report a systematic measurement of cumulants, C n, for net-proton, proton, and
antiproton multiplicity distributions, and correlation functions, κ n, for proton and antiproton …
