HTL-resummed thermodynamics of hot and dense QCD: An update
Abstract
We review the proposal to resum the physics of hard thermal loops in the thermodynamics of the quark-gluon plasma through nonperturbative expressions for entropy and density obtained from a Phi-derivable two-loop approximation. A comparison with the recently solved large-Nf limit of hot QCD is performed, and some updates, in particular on quark number susceptibilities, are made.
