Abstract

The van der Waals interaction is implemented in a Hadron Resonance Gas model. It is shown that this model can describe Lattice QCD data of different thermodynamical quantities satisfactorily with the van der Waals parameters a=1250±150a = 1250 \pm 150 MeV fm3^3 and r=0.7±0.05r = 0.7 \pm 0.05 fm. Further, a phase transition is observed in this model with the critical point at temperature, T=62.1T = 62.1 MeV and baryon chemical potential, μB=708\mu_B = 708 MeV.
