Probing the phase diagram of QCD with fluctuations

Bengt Friman (GSI Darmstadt)

The critical fluctuations at the chiral crossover transition are reflected in fluctuations of the net baryon number, net strangeness etc. The generic behaviour of the corresponding susceptibilities is extracted from O(4) scaling functions and from model calculations. The possibility to use these fluctuations to explore the phase diagram of QCD in heavy-ion collisions is discussed.
