Recent Theoretical Developments in the QCD Phase Diagram

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2017-08-23 v1 Nuclear Theory

Abstract

In this talk I discuss three recent developments in the theoretical understanding of the phase diagram of the strong interaction. The first topic deals with the comparison of model calculations of the quark-hadron transition at vanishing quark chemical potential with state-of-the-art lattice QCD results. In the second relates to the size of a possible 'quarkyonic phase'. The third deals with the occurence of inhomogeneous chiral phases.
