Abstract

Recent results obtained from numerical computations in lattice regularized QCD are summarized. The write-up of the talk concentrates on the liberation of strange quarks in the vicinity of the chiral QCD transition and on certain ratios of cumulants of net electric charge fluctuations which can be used to determine freeze-out parameters by a comparison of experimental data from heavy ion collisions with lattice QCD results.
