Abstract

The aim of our project is to compute the charmed equation of state for Quantum Chromodynamics (for details, see [1]). We are using the lattice discretized version of Quantum Chromodynamics, called lattice QCD, which allows simulations of the theory through importance sampling methods. Our results are important input quantities for phenomenological calculations and are required to understand experiments aiming to generate a new state of matter, called Quark-Gluon-Plasma, such as the upcoming FAIR at GSI, Darmstadt.

Notes

  1. 1.

    This refers to dynamical up/down and strange quarks—including a dynamical charm quark is what was proposed here.
