Abstract
We use the excluded volume Hadron Resonance Gas (HRG) model with the most up-to-date hadron list to calculate at low temperatures and at finite baryon densities . This is then matched to a QCD-based shear viscosity calculation of the QGP for different profiles of across {T,} including cross-over and critical point transitions. When compared to ideal hydrodynamic trajectories across {T,}, we find that the profiles would require initial conditions at much larger baryon density to reach the same freeze-out point.
