Susceptibilities of conserved charges such as baryon minus lepton number enter baryogenesis computations, since they provide the relationship between conserved charges and chemical potentials. Their next-to-leading order corrections are of…
We analyze the behavior of cumulants of conserved charges in a subvolume of a thermal system with exact global conservation laws by extending a recently developed subensemble acceptance method (SAM) [V. Vovchenko et al., arXiv:2003.13905]…

We present results from a chiral soliton model calculation for the spectrum of baryons with a single heavy quark (charm or bottom) and non-zero strangeness. We treat the strange components within a three flavor collective coordinate…
Although strange quarks are produced in $s\bar{s}$ pairs, the ratio of $\Omega^{-}$ to ${\bar{\Omega}}^{+}$ is greater than one in heavy-ion collisions at lower RHIC energies. Thus the produced $\Omega$ hyperons must carry net baryon…
Diagonal and off-diagonal flavor and conserved charge susceptibilities reveal the prevalent degrees of freedom of heated strongly interacting matter. Results obtained from lattice simulations are compared with various model estimates in an…
We present an analysis of the lowest-lying decuplet baryon masses in the covariant baryon chiral perturbation theory with the extended-on-mass-shell scheme up to next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order. In order to determine the $14$…
We address the question of how to identify the QCD phase transition using measured light (u,d,s-structured) hadrons, without invoking comparison to the QCD $\epsilon_c$ predictions, and extract $\epsilon_c$ from the data. We analyse several…
Proxies for cumulants of baryon number $B$, electric charge $Q$ and strangeness $S$ are usually measured in heavy-ion collisions via moments of net-number distribution of given hadronic species. Since these cumulants of conserved charges…
Net-baryon number, net-charge and net-strangeness fluctuations measured in ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions may reveal details and insights into the quark-hadron transition, hadrochemical freeze-out and possibly aid in the search of…
Correlations related to local charge conservation provide insight into the creation and evolution of up, down and strange charges in the quark-gluon plasma. Here, the evolution of charge correlations is overlaid onto a hydrodynamic…
Strangeness and baryon enhancement in heavy ion collisions are discussed in the framework of the String Fusion Model. The Monte Carlo version of this model is shown to reasonably reproduce three of the features that have been pointed out as…
