  1. Probability distribution of conserved charges and the QCD phase transitionK. Redlich • QCD phaseboundary, its O(4) „scaling” & relation to freezeoutin HIC • Moments and probablilitydistributions of conservedcharges as probes of the O(4) crossovercriticality • STAR data & expectiations HIC crossover CP orTriple Point ? Qarkyonic Matter ? with:P. Braun-Munzinger, B. Friman F. Karsch, V. Skokov

  2. Chemical freezeout and QCD crtitical line • Relating freezeout and QCD critical line at small baryon chemical potential • Particle yields and their ratios as well as LGT thermodynamics at are well described by the HRG Partition Function • QCD crossover line - remnant of the O(4) criticality O(4) universality A. Andronic et al., Nucl.Phys.A837:65-86,2010.

  3. LGT and phenomenological HRG model C. Allton et al., S. Ejiri, F. Karsch & K.R. • The HRG partition function provides and excellent approximation of the QCD thermodynamics at See also: C. Ratti et al., P. Huovinen et al., B. Muller et al.,…….

  4. Kurtosis as an excellent probe of deconfinement S. Ejiri, F. Karsch & K.R. • HRG factorization of pressure: consequently: in HRG • In QGP, • Kurtosis=Ratio of cumulants excellent probe of deconfinement Kurtosis F. Karsch, Ch. Schmidt The measures the quark content of particles carrying baryon number

  5. O(4) scaling and critical behavior • Near critical properties obtained from the singular part of the free energy density with with • Phase transition encoded in • the “equation of state” pseudo-critical line

  6. O(4) scaling of net-baryon number fluctuations with • The fluctuations are quantified by susceptibilities • Fromfree energy and scalingfunction one gets • Resulting in singularstructuresinn-th order momentswhichappear for and for • sincein O(4) univ. class

  9. Properties of fluctuationsin HRG Calculate generalized susceptibilities: from Hadron Resonance Gas (HRG) partition function: and and resulting in: Comparethese HRG model predictionswith STAR data at RHIC:

  10. Coparison of the Hadron Resonance Gas Model with STAR data • Frithjof Karsch & K.R. • RHIC data follow generic properties expected within HRG model for different ratios of the first four moments of baryon number fluctuations Error Estimation for Moments Analysis: Xiaofeng Luo arXiv:1109.0593v

  11. Mean, variance, skewness and kurtosisobtained by STAR and rescaled HRG • STAR Au-Au • STAR Au-Au these data, due to transverse momentum cut. Account effectively for the above in the HRG model by rescaling the volume parameter by the factor 1.8/8.5

  12. Moments obtained from probability distributions • Moments obtained form the probability distribution • Probability quantified by all moments • In statistical physics Moments generating function:

  13. conservation on the average exact conservation • Probability quantified by :mean numbers of charged 1,2 and 3 particles & their antiparticles

  14. P(N) in the Hadron Resonance Gas for net- proton number Theprobabilitydistribution for net baryonnumber N isgovernedin HRG by theSkellamdistribution The probability distribution for net proton number N is entirely given in terms of (measurable) mean number of protons b and anti-protons
