Critical QCD in nuclear collisions

A detailed study of correlated scalars, produced in collisions of nuclei and associated with the σ-field fluctuations, (δσ)2=〈σ2〉, at the QCD critical point (critical fluctuations), is performed on the basis of a critical event generator (critical Monte Carlo) developed in our previous work. The aim of this analysis is to reveal suitable observables of critical QCD in the multiparticle environment of simulated events and select appropriate...
