Lattice QCD
¨ Best first principle-tool to extract predictions for the theory of strong interactions in the non-perturbative regime
¨ Uncertainties: ¤ Statistical: finite sample, error ¤ Systematic: finite box size, unphysical quark masses
¨ Given enough computer power, uncertainties can be kept under control
¨ Results from different groups, adopting different discretizations, converge to consistent results
¨ Unprecedented level of accuracy in lattice data 2/26

Low temperature phase: HRG model
¨ Interacting hadronic matter in the ground state can be well approximated by a non-interacting resonance gas
¨ The pressure can be written as:
¨ Up to which temperature do we expect agreement with the lattice data?

High temperature limit
¨ QCD thermodynamics approaches that of a non-interacting, massless quark-gluon gas:
¨ We can switch on the interaction and systematically expand the observables in series of the coupling g
¨ Resummation of diagrams (HTL) or dimensional reduction are needed, to improve convergence
¨ At what temperature does perturbation theory break down?

Sign problem
¨ The QCD path integral is computed by Monte Carlo algorithms which samples field configurations with a weight proportional to the exponential of the action
¨ detM[µB] complex à Monte Carlo simulations are not feasible
¨ We can rely on a few approximate methods, viable for small µB/T:
¤ Taylor expansion of physical quantities around µ=0 (Bielefeld-Swansea collaboration 2002; R. Gavai, S. Gupta 2003)
¤ Reweighting (complex phase moved from the measure to observables)(Barbour et al. 1998; Z. Fodor and S, Katz, 2002)
¤ Simulations at imaginary chemical potentials (plus analytic continuation)(Alford, Kapustin, Wilczek, 1999; de Forcrand, Philipsen, 2002; D’Elia, Lombardo 2003)

Evolution of a Heavy Ion Collision
10/26
• Chemical freeze-out: inelastic reactions cease: the chemical composition of the
system is fixed (particle yields and fluctuations) • Kinetic freeze-out: elastic reactions cease: spectra and correlations are frozen (free
streaming of hadrons) • Hadrons reach the detector

Hadron yields
11/26
• E=mc2: lots of particles are created
• Particle counting (average over many events)
• Take into account: • detector inefficiency
• missing particles at low pT • decays
• HRG model: test hypothesis of hadron abundancies in equilibrium

The thermal fits
12/26
• Fit is performed minimizing the ✘2
• Fit to yields: parameters T, µB, V • Fit to ratios: the volume V cancels out
• Changing the collision energy, it is possible
to draw the freeze-out line in the T, µB plane

Connection to experiment
¨ Fluctuations of conserved charges are the cumulants of their event-by-event distribution
¨ Lattice QCD results are functions of temperature and chemical potential ¤ By comparing lattice results and experimental measurement we can extract
the freeze-out parameters from first principles

Things to keep in mind
¨ Effects due to volume variation because of finite centrality bin width ¤ Experimentally corrected by centrality-bin-width correction method
¨ Finite reconstruction efficiency ¤ Experimentally corrected based on binomial distribution
¨ Spallation protons ¤ Experimentally removed with proper cuts in pT
¨ Canonical vs Gran Canonical ensemble ¤ Experimental cuts in the kinematics and acceptance
¨ Proton multiplicity distributions vs baryon number fluctuations ¤ Recipes for treating proton fluctuations
¨ Final-state interactions in the hadronic phase ¤ Consistency between different charges = fundamental test

“Baryometer and Thermometer”
16/26
Let us look at the Taylor expansion of RB31
• To order µ2B it is independent of µB: it can be used as a thermometer
• Let us look at the Taylor expansion of RB12
• Once we extract T from RB31, we can use RB12 to extract µB

Transport properties
¨ Matter in the region (1-2)Tc is highly non-perturbative
¨ Significant modifications of its transport properties
¨ Common problem: ¤ Transport properties can be explored through the analysis of certain
correlation functions:
¤ Challenge: integrate over discrete set of lattice points in τ direction
¤ Use inversion methods like Maximum Entropy Method or modeling the spectral function at low frequencies

Quarkonia properties
¨ Three main approaches:
¤ Potential models with heavy quark potential calculated on the lattice
n Solve Schroedinger’s equation for the bound state two-point function
¤ Extract spectral functions from Euclidean temporal correlators
¤ Study spatial correlation functions of quarkonia and their in-medium screening properties
