Diffusive dynamics of critical fluctuations near the QCD critical point

Journal Article Nahrgang, Marlene ; Bluhm, Marcus ; Schäfer, Thomas ; ... - Physical Review D

A quantitatively reliable theoretical description of the dynamics of fluctuations in nonequilibrium is indispensable in the experimental search for the QCD critical point by means of ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions. Herein we consider the fluctuations of the net-baryon density which becomes the slow, critical mode near the critical point. Due to net-baryon number conservation the dynamics is described by the fluid dynamical diffusion equation, which we extend to contain a white noise stochastic current. Including nonlinear couplings from the 3d Ising model universality class in the free energy functional, we solve the fully interacting theory in a finite size system. Wemore »« less

Fluctuations and correlations of conserved charges near the QCD critical point

Journal Article Weijie, Fu ; Yueliang, Wu - Physical Review. D, Particles Fields

We study the fluctuations and correlations of conserved charges, such as the baryon number, the electric charge and the strangeness, at the finite temperature and the nonzero baryon chemical potential in an effective model. The fluctuations are calculated up to the fourth-order and the correlations to the third-order. We find that the second-order fluctuations and correlations have a peak or valley structure when the chiral phase transition takes place with the increase of the baryon chemical potential; the third-order fluctuations and correlations change their signs during the chiral phase transition; and the fourth-order fluctuations have two maxima and one minimum.more »« less

Evolution of fluctuations near QCD critical point

Journal Article Stephanov, M A - Physical Review. D, Particles Fields

We propose to describe the time evolution of quasistationary fluctuations near QCD critical point by a system of stochastic Boltzmann-Langevin-Vlasov-type equations. We derive the equations and study the system analytically in the linearized regime. Known results for equilibrium stationary fluctuations as well as the critical scaling of diffusion coefficient are reproduced. We apply the approach to the long-standing question of the fate of the critical point fluctuations during the hadronic rescattering stage of the heavy-ion collision after chemical freeze-out. We find that if conserved particle number fluctuations survive the rescattering, so do, under a certain additional condition, the fluctuations ofmore »« less

Non-Gaussian Fluctuations near the QCD Critical Point

Journal Article Stephanov, M A - Physical Review Letters

We study the effect of the QCD critical point on non-Gaussian moments (cumulants) of fluctuations of experimental observables in heavy-ion collisions. We find that these moments are very sensitive to the proximity of the critical point, as measured by the magnitude of the correlation length {xi}. For example, the cubic central moment of multiplicity <({delta}N){sup 3}>{approx}{xi}{sup 4.5} and the quartic cumulant <({delta}N){sup 4}>{sub c}{approx}{xi}{sup 7}. We estimate the magnitude of critical point contributions to non-Gaussian fluctuations of pion and proton multiplicities.
