Quasi-particle perspective on QCD matter and critical end point effects

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2007-05-23 v2

Abstract

Our quasi-particle model is compared with recent lattice QCD data at finite temperature and baryon number density with emphasis on the coefficients in the Taylor series expansion of thermodynamic observables. The inclusion of static critical end point effects into the equation of state is discussed.
