Sensitivity of Polyakov Nambu-Jona-Lasinio (PNJL) model and Polyakov linear sigma-model (PLSM) has been utilized in studying QCD phase-diagram. From quasi-particle model (QPM) a gluonic sector is integrated into LSM. The hadron resonance gas (HRG) model is used in calculating the thermal and dense dependence of quark-antiquark condensate. We review these four models with respect to their descriptions for the chiral phase transition. We analyze the chiral order parameter, normalized net-strange condensate, and chiral phase-diagram and compare the results with recent lattice calculations. We find that PLSM chiral boundary is located in upper band of the lattice QCD calculations and agree well with the freeze-out results deduced from various high-energy experiments and thermal models. Also, we find that the chiral temperature calculated from HRG is larger than that from PLSM. This is also larger than the freeze-out temperatures calculated in lattice QCD and deduced from experiments and thermal models. The corresponding temperature and chemical potential are very similar to that of PLSM. Although the results from PNJL and QLSM keep the same behavior, their chiral temperature is higher than that of PLSM and HRG. This might be interpreted due the very heavy quark masses implemented in both models.

From the nonextensive statistical mechanics, we investigate the chiral phase transition at finite temperature T and baryon chemical potential μB in the framework of the linear sigma model. The corresponding nonextensive distribution, based on Tsallis’ statistics, is characterized by a dimensionless nonextensive parameter, q, and the results in the usual Boltzmann-Gibbs case are recovered when q→1. The thermodynamics of the linear sigma model and its corresponding phase diagram are analysed. At high temperature region, the critical temperature Tc is shown to decrease with increasing q from the phase diagram in the (T,μ) plane. However, larger values of q cause the rise of Tc at low temperature but high chemical potential. Moreover, it is found that μ different from zero corresponds to a first-order phase transition while μ=0 to a crossover one. The critical endpoint (CEP) carries higher chemical potential but lower temperature with q increasing due to the nonextensive effects.

We extend the recently developed hybrid quark–meson–nucleon model by augmenting a six-point scalar interaction and investigate the consequences for neutron-star sequences in the mass–radius diagram. One of the characteristic features of the model is that the chiral symmetry is restored within the hadronic phase by lifting the mass splitting between chiral partner states, before quark deconfinement takes place. At low temperature and finite baryon density, the model predicts a first- or second-order chiral phase transition, or a crossover, depending on the expectation value of a scalar field, and a first-order deconfinement phase transition. We discuss two sets of free parameters, which result in compact-star mass–radius relations that are at tension with the combined constraints for maximum-mass ( 2 M ⊙ ) and the compactness (GW170817). We find that the most preferable mass–radius relations result in isospin-symmetric phase diagram with rather low temperature for the critical point of the chiral phase transition.

AbstractDifferent aspects of the phase diagram of strongly interacting matter described by quantum chromodynamics (QCD), which have emerged from the recent studies using lattice gauge theory techniques, are discussed. A special emphasis is given on understanding the role of the anomalous axial U(1) symmetry in determining the order of the finite temperature chiral phase transition in QCD with two massless quark flavors and tracing its origin to the topological properties of the QCD vacuum.
