Hadron resonance gas with van der Waals interactions

Nuclear Theory 2020-07-09 v1 High Energy Physics - Phenomenology

Abstract

An overview of a hadron resonance gas (HRG) model that includes van der Waals interactions between hadrons is presented. Applications of the excluded volume HRG model to heavy-ion collision data and lattice QCD equation of state are discussed. A recently developed quantum van der Waals hadron resonance gas model is covered as well. Applications of this model in the context of the QCD critical point are elaborated.
