Up to 6th order cumulants of fluctuations of net baryon-number, net electric charge and net strangeness as well as correlations among these conserved charge fluctuations are now being calculated in lattice QCD. These cumulants provide a…
We present results from studies of high temperature QCD with two flavors of Kogut-Susskind quarks on $16^3\times 8$ lattices at a quark mass of $am_q=0.00625$ and on $24^3\times 12$ lattices at quark masses $am_q=0.008$ and 0.016. The value…
