Taylor expansions in chemical potential
Abstract
Properties of QCD at finite chemical potential are extracted using Taylor series expansions. The continuum limits of lattice results are presented. The result of expanding the free energy density, ie, the pressure, to 6th order in the expansion is shown. The Taylor coefficients of the chiral condensate are also shown. Relations between various Taylor coefficients are demonstrated. All this information is utilised to remove various lattice artifacts from the determination of the Wroblewski parameter in strangeness production.
