Characterizing the phases of matter
The location of the critical End point and the phase coexistence regions are
fundamental to the phase diagram of any substance !
The properties of each
phase is also of
fundamental interest

Known unknowns
Location of the critical point (CEP)? Order of the phase transition? Value of the critical exponents?
Location of phase coexistence regions?
Detailed properties of each phase?
All are fundamental to charting the phase diagram
Known knownsSpectacular achievement:
Validation of the crossover transition leading to the QGP Initial estimates for the transport properties of the QGP
(New) measurements, analysis techniques and theory efforts which probe
a broad range of the (T, 𝛍𝐁)-plane, are essential to fully unravel the unknowns!

Epilogue
Roy A. Lacey, Stony Brook University; Yale University, Nov. 19, 2015
Strong experimental indication for the CEP
and its location
New Data from RHIC (BES-II)
together with theoretical
modeling, can provide
crucial validation tests for
the coexistence regions, as
well as to firm-up
characterization of the CEP!
