We discuss the role of quantum coherence in the energy fluctuations of open quantum systems. To this aim, we introduce a protocol, to which we refer to as the end-point-measurement scheme, allowing to define the statistics of energy changes…
We investigate the impact of the finite volume and the thermal fluctuations on the Critical End Point of the QCD phase diagram. To do so, we implement the super statistics framework with Gamma, $F$, and log-normal distributions and their…

When hadrons scatter at high energies, strong color fields, whose dynamics is described by quantum chromodynamics (QCD), are generated at the interaction point. If one represents these fields in terms of partons (quarks and gluons), the…
