Fluctuations of conserved quantities are believed to be sensitive observables to probe the signature of the QCD phase transition and critical point. It was argued recently that measuring the genuine correlation functions (CFs) could provide cleaner information on possible nontrivial dynamics in heavy-ion collisions.With the AMPT (a multiphase transport) model, the centrality and energy dependence of various orders of CFs of net protons in Au + Au collisions at $sqrt{s_mathrm{NN}}$=7.7, 11.5, 19.6, 27, 39, 62.4 and 200 GeV are investigated. The model results show that the number of antiprotons is important and should be taken into account in the calculation of CFs at high energy and/or in peripheral collisions. It is also found that the contribution of antiprotons is more important for higher order correlations than for lower ones. The CFs of antiprotons and mixed correlations play roles comparable to those of protons at high energies. Finally, we make comparisons between the model calculation and experimental data measured in the STAR experiment at the BNL Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider.

We report a systematic measurement of cumulants, $C_{n}$, for net-proton, proton and antiproton multiplicity distributions, and correlation functions, $kappa_n$, for proton and antiproton multiplicity distributions up to the fourth order in Au+Au col
lisions at $sqrt{s_{mathrm {NN}}}$ = 7.7, 11.5, 14.5, 19.6, 27, 39, 54.4, 62.4 and 200 GeV. The $C_{n}$ and $kappa_n$ are presented as a function of collision energy, centrality and kinematic acceptance in rapidity, $y$, and transverse momentum, $p_{T}$. The data were taken during the first phase of the Beam Energy Scan (BES) program (2010 -- 2017) at the BNL Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) facility. The measurements are carried out at midrapidity ($|y| <$ 0.5) and transverse momentum 0.4 $<$ $p_{rm T}$ $<$ 2.0 GeV/$c$, using the STAR detector at RHIC. We observe a non-monotonic energy dependence ($sqrt{s_{mathrm {NN}}}$ = 7.7 -- 62.4 GeV) of the net-proton $C_{4}$/$C_{2}$ with the significance of 3.1$sigma$ for the 0-5% central Au+Au collisions. This is consistent with the expectations of critical fluctuations in a QCD-inspired model. Thermal and transport model calculations show a monotonic variation with $sqrt{s_{mathrm {NN}}}$. For the multiparticle correlation functions, we observe significant negative values for a two-particle correlation function, $kappa_2$, of protons and antiprotons, which are mainly due to the effects of baryon number conservation. Furthermore, it is found that the four-particle correlation function, $kappa_4$, of protons plays a role in determining the energy dependence of proton $C_4/C_1$ below 19.6 GeV, which cannot be understood by the effect of baryon number conservation.
We analyze the transverse momentum distribution of $J/psi$ mesons produced in Au + Au collisions at the top RHIC energy within a blast-wave model that accounts for a possible inhomogeneity of the charmonium distribution and/or flow fluctuations. The
results imply that the transverse momentum spectra of$J/psi$, $phi$ and $Omega$ hadrons measured at the RHIC can be described well if kinetic freeze-out takes place just after chemical freeze-out for these particles.
Hadronic resonances, having very short lifetime, like $rm{K}^{*0}$, can act as useful probes to understand and estimate lifetime of hadronic phase in ultra-relativistic proton-proton, p--Pb and heavy-ion collisions. Resonances with relatively longer
lifetime, like $phi$ meson, can serve as a tool to locate the QGP phase boundary. We estimate a lower limit of hadronic phase lifetime in Cu--Cu and Au--Au collisions at RHIC, and in pp, p--Pb and Pb--Pb collisions at different LHC collision energies. Also, we obtain the effective temperature of $phi$ meson using Boltzmann-Gibbs Blast-Wave function, which gives an insight to locate the QGP phase boundary. We observe that the hadronic phase lifetime strongly depends on final state charged-particle multiplicity, whereas the QGP phase and hence the QCD phase boundary shows a very weak multiplicity dependence. This suggests that the hadronisation from a QGP state starts at a similar temperature irrespective of charged-particle multiplicity, collision system and collision energy, while the endurance of hadronic phase is strongly dependent on final state charge-particle multiplicity, system size and collision energy.
Different orientations of $alpha$-clustered carbon nuclei colliding with heavy ions can result in a large variation in the value of anisotropic flow. Thus, photon flow observables from clustered ${rm^{12}C}$ and ${rm^{197}Au}$ collisions could be a p
otential probe to study the `direct photon puzzle. We calculate the transverse momentum spectra and anisotropic flow coefficients ($v_n$) of thermal photons from collisions of triangular $alpha$-clustered carbon and gold at $sqrt{s_{rm NN}}=200$ GeV at RHIC using a hydrodynamic model framework and compare the results with those obtained from unclustered carbon and gold collisions. The slope of the thermal photon spectra is found to vary moderately for different orientations of collisions. However, we find that the elliptic ($v_2$) and triangular flow ($v_3$) coefficients of direct photons for specific configurations are significantly larger and predominantly formed by the QGP radiation. A strong anti-correlation between initial spatial ellipticity and triangularity is observed in an event-by-event framework of $alpha$-clustered ${rm C+Au}$ collisions. These special features provide us an opportunity to detect the exotic nature of cluster structure inside carbon nucleus using the photon probe in the future experiments.
Based on the recent RHIC and LHC experimental results, the $langle p_Trangle$ dependence of identified light flavour charged hadrons on $sqrt{(frac{dN}{dy})/S_{perp}}$, relevant scale in gluon saturation picture, is studied from $sqrt{s_{NN}}$=7.7 Ge
V up to 5.02 TeV. This study is extended to the slopes of the $langle p_Trangle$ dependence on the particle mass and the $langlebeta_Trangle$ parameter from Boltzmann-Gibbs Blast Wave (BGBW) fits of the $p_T$ spectra. A systematic decrease of the slope of the $langle p_Trangle$ dependence on $sqrt{(frac{dN}{dy})/S_{perp}}$ from BES to the LHC energies is evidenced. While for the RHIC energies, within the experimental errors, the $langle p_Trangle$/$sqrt{(frac{dN}{dy})/S_{perp}}$ does not depend on centrality, at the LHC energies a deviation from a linear behaviour is observed towards the most central collisions. The influence of the corona contribution to the observed trends is discussed. The slopes of the $langle p_Trangle$ particle mass dependence and the $langlebeta_Trangle$ parameter from BGBW fits scale well with $sqrt{(frac{dN}{dy})/S_{perp}}$. Similar systematic trends for pp at $sqrt{s}$=7 TeV are in a good agreement with the ones corresponding to Pb-Pb collisions at $sqrt{s_{NN}}$=2.76 TeV and 5.02 TeV pointing to a system size independent behaviour.
