QCD phase diagram with constant entropy contours and fluctuations in heavy-ion collisions

Abstract

We present a lattice-based construction of the QCD equation of state with and without the critical point at finite baryon densities, and present a hydrodynamics-based calculation of proton number cumulants utilizing these equations of state.
