We present a mean-field model of the dense nuclear matter equation of state designed for use in computationally demanding hadronic transport simulations. Our approach, based on the relativistic Landau Fermi-liquid theory, allows us to construct a family of equations of state spanning a wide range of possible bulk properties of dense QCD matter. We implement the developed model in the hadronic transport code SMASH, and show that the resulting dynamic behavior reproduces theoretical expectations for the thermodynamic properties of the system based on the underlying equation of state. In particular, we show that pair distribution functions calculated from hadronic transport simulation data are consistent with theoretical expectations based on the second-order cumulant ratio, and can be used as a signature of crossing the phase diagram in the vicinity of a critical point. We additionally present a novel method that may enable a measurement of the speed of sound and its derivative with respect to the baryon number density in heavy-ion collisions. Application of our approach to available experimental data implies that the derivative of the speed of sound is non-monotonic in systems created in collisions at intermediate to low energies, which in turn may be connected to non-trivial features in the underlying equation of state.

This report summarizes the presentations and discussions during the Rapid Reaction Task Force Dynamics of critical fluctuations: Theory -- phenomenology -- heavy-ion collisions, which was organized by the ExtreMe Matter Institute EMMI and held at GSI
, Darmstadt, Germany in April 2019. We address the current understanding of the dynamics of critical fluctuations in QCD and their measurement in heavy-ion collision experiments. In addition, we outline what might be learned from studying correlations in other physical systems, such as cold atomic gases.
Convolutional Neural Nets, which is a powerful method of Deep Learning, is applied to classify equation of state of heavy-ion collision event generated within the UrQMD model. Event-by-event transverse momentum and azimuthal angle distributions of pr
otons are used to train a classifier. An overall accuracy of classification of 98% is reached for Au+Au events at $sqrt{s_{NN}} = 11$ GeV. Performance of classifiers, trained on events at different colliding energies, is investigated. Obtained results indicate extensive possibilities of application of Deep Learning methods to other problems in physics of heavy-ion collisions.
A recently proposed method, based on quadrupole and multiplicity fluctuations in heavy ion collisions, is modified in order to take into account distortions due to the Coulomb field. This is particularly interesting for bosons produced in heavy ion c
ollisions, such as $d$ and $alpha$ particles. We derive temperatures and densities seen by the bosons and compare to similar calculations for fermions. The resulting energy densities agree rather well with each other and with the one derived from neutrons. This suggests that a common phenomenon, such as the sudden opening of many reaction channels and/or a liquid gas phase transition, is responsible for the agreement.
The QCD equation of state at zero baryon chemical potential is the only element of the standard dynamical framework to describe heavy ion collisions that can be directly determined from first principles. Continuum extrapolated lattice QCD equations o
f state have been computed using 2+1 quark flavors (up/down and strange) as well as 2+1+1 flavors to investigate the effect of thermalized charm quarks on QCD thermodynamics. Lattice results have also indicated the presence of new strange resonances that not only contribute to the equation of state of QCD matter but also affect hadronic afterburners used to model the later stages of heavy ion collisions. We investigate how these new developments obtained from first principles calculations affect multiparticle correlations in heavy ion collisions. We compare the commonly used equation of state S95n-v1, which was constructed using what are now considered outdated lattice results and hadron states, to the current state-of-the-art lattice QCD equations of state with 2+1 and 2+1+1 flavors coupled to the most up-to-date hadronic resonances and their decays. New hadronic resonances lead to an enhancement in the hadronic spectra at intermediate $p_T$. Using an outdated equation of state can directly affect the extraction of the shear viscosity to entropy density ratio, $eta/s$, of the quark-gluon plasma and results for different flow observables. The effects of the QCD equation of state on multiparticle correlations of identified particles are determined for both AuAu $sqrt{s_{NN}}=200$ GeV and PbPb $sqrt{s_{NN}}=5.02$ TeV collisions. New insights into the $v_2{2}$ to $v_3{2}$ puzzle in ultracentral collisions are found. Flow observables of heavier particles exhibit more non-linear behavior regardless of the assumptions about the equation of state, which may provide a new way to constrain the temperature dependence of $eta/s$.
A variety of phenomena connected with the formation of a dinuclear complex is observed in the heavy ion collisions at low energies. The dinuclear system model allows us to analyze the experimental data and to interpret them by comparison of the parti
al capture, fusion and evaporation residue cross sections measured for the different reactions leading to the same compound nucleus. The comparison of theoretical and experimental values of the mass and angular distributions of the reaction products gives us a detailed information about reaction mechanism forming the observed yields. The observed very small cross sections of the evaporation residues may be explained by the strong fusion hindrance and/or instability of the heated and rotating compound nucleus and smallness of its survival probability. The fusion hindrance arises due to competition between complete fusion and quasifission while the smallness of survival probability is connected with the decrease of the fission barrier at large excitation energy and angular momentum of compound nucleus.
