Signals of the QGP phase transition - a view from microscopic transport models

TL;DR

This paper reviews how microscopic transport models can identify signals indicating the phase transition from hadronic matter to quark-gluon plasma, based on various observable predictions.

Contribution

It provides a comparative overview of transport model predictions for QGP signals, highlighting their potential in phase transition detection.

Findings

Transport models predict specific signals for QGP formation.

Observable differences distinguish hadronic matter from QGP.

Transport models help interpret experimental data on phase transition signals.

Abstract

In this contribution the results from various transport models on different observables - considered as possible signals of the phase transition from hadronic matter to the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) - are briefly reviewed.
