The hadron resonance gas model: thermodynamics of QCD and Polyakov loop
E. Megias, E. Ruiz Arriola, L. L. Salcedo

TL;DR
This paper explores the hadron resonance gas model to describe QCD thermodynamics and Polyakov loop behavior in the confined phase, comparing results with lattice simulations to validate the approach.
Contribution
It provides a novel analysis of QCD thermodynamics and Polyakov loop using the hadron resonance gas model, with direct comparison to lattice data.
Findings
The model accurately reproduces the QCD equation of state in the confined phase.
The Polyakov loop expectation value is well-described by the model with heavy quarks.
Comparison shows good agreement with lattice simulation results.
Abstract
We study the hadron resonance gas model and describe the equation of state of QCD and the vacuum expectation value of the Polyakov loop in the confined phase, in terms of hadronic states with light quarks in the first case, and with exactly one heavy quark in the second case. Comparison with lattice simulations is made.
