We report on results about the mass sensitivity of chiral symmetry restoration in the linear sigma model. For masses of the pseudoscalar meson octet which are close to the experimental values, we observed only a gradual change in the order parameters, when the temperature was changed. To estimate the size of the first order transition region around the chiral limit, we have varied the mass input for the tree level parametrization in several ways. The point with realistic meson masses turned out to lie well inside the crossover region.

We use the linear sigma model with quarks to study the QCD phase diagram from the point of view of chiral symmetry restoration. We compute the leading order effective potential for high and low temperatures and finite quark chemical potential, up to the contribution of the ring diagrams to account for the plasma screening effects. We fix the values of the model couplings using physical values for the input parameters such as  the vacuum pion and sigma masses, the critical temperature at vanishing quark chemical potential and the conjectured end point value of the baryon chemical potential of the transition line at vanishing temperature. We find that the critical end point (CEP) is located at low temperatures and high quark chemical potentials $(\mu^{\text{CEP}}>320\ {\mbox{MeV}},T^{\text{CEP}}<40\ {\mbox{MeV}})$.
