Motivated by forthcoming experiments at RHIC and LHC, and results from SPS, a review is given of the present state of event-by-event fluctuations in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions. Fluctuations in particle multiplicities, ratios,…
We construct a physics-agnostic approach to the neutron star (NS) equation of state (EoS) based on a sound speed model, which connects both low-density information from nuclear theory and high-density constraints from perturbative QCD…
