We investigate the spectroscopic properties of the strange particle kaon in the framework of hot and dense QCD. To this end, first, we find the perturbative spectral density, which is connected with both the temperature $T$ and the baryon…
We study the nucleon as a nontopological soliton in a quark medium as well as in a nucleon medium in terms of the Polyakov quark meson (PQM) model with two flavors at finite temperature and density. The constituent quark masses evolving…
At very large densities and/or temperatures a quark-hadron phase transition is expected to take place. Simulations of QCD on lattice at zero baryon density indicate that the transition occurs at $T_c \sim 150-170$ MeV. The calculations…

Based on the fact that the constituent quark model reproduces the recent lattice result on baryon-baryon repulsion at short distance and that it includes the quark dynamics with confinement, we analyze to what extent the quarkyonic modes…
We study thermal and chemical equilibration in 'infinite' hadron matter as well as in finite size relativistic nucleus-nucleus collisions using a BUU cascade transport model with resonance and string degrees-of-freedom. The 'infinite'…

We analyze the phase diagram of QCD with four staggered flavors in the (mu, T) plane using a method recently proposed by us. We explore the region T > 0.7 Tc and mu <1.4 Tc, where Tc is the transition temperature at zero baryon density, and…
In heavy ion collision experiments as well as in neutron stars, both baryon and isospin chemical potentials are different from zero. In particular, the regime of small isospin chemical potential is phenomenologically important. Using a…
