Moat regimes in the phase diagram of QCD

Location: 4138 Physics Research Building

 

Abstract: The phase diagram of QCD in the plane of temperature and nonzero chemical potential can exhibit unusual phenomena.  Associated with a critical endpoint is a "moat" regime, where the minimum of the dispersion relation for pions occurs at nonzero spatial momentum.  I discuss a characteristic experimental signature of moatons in dilepton production
