Generalized susceptibilities of net-baryon number based on the 3-dimensional Ising universality class
Abstract
Assuming the equilibrium of the QCD system, we have investigated the critical behavior of sixth-, eighth- and tenth-order susceptibilities of net-baryon number, through mapping the results in the three-dimensional Ising model to that of QCD. Both the leading critical contribution as well as sub-leading critical contribution from the Ising model are discussed. When considering only the leading critical contribution, the density plots for susceptibilities of the same order demonstrate a consistent general pattern independent on values of mapping parameters. As the critical point is approached from the crossover side, a negative dip followed by a positive peak is observed in the dependence of the three different orders of susceptibilities. When sub-leading critical contribution is taken into account, modifications become apparent in the density plots of the susceptibilities. The emergence of negative dips in the dependence of the susceptibilities is not an absolute phenomenon, while the positive peak structure is a more robust feature of the critical point.
