    We employ an Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton model, based on the gauge/gravity correspondence, to obtain the thermodynamics and transport properties for the hot and dense quark-gluon plasma. The model, which is constrained to reproduce lattice QCD thermodynamics at zero density, predicts a critical point and a first order line at finite temperature and density, is used to quantify jet energy loss through simulations of high-energy collision events.

    By using gravity/gauge correspondence, we construct a holographic model, constrained to mimic the lattice QCD equation of state at zero density, to investigate the temperature and baryon chemical potential dependence of the equation of state. We also obtained the energy loss of light and heavy partons within the hot and dense plasma represented by the heavy quark drag force, Langevin diffusion coefficients and jet quenching parameter at the critical point and across the first-order transition line predicted by the model.

  3. By using gravity/gauge correspondence, we employ an Einstein-Maxwell-Dilaton model to compute the equilibrium and out-of-equilibrium properties of a hot and baryon rich strongly coupled quark-gluon plasma. The family of 5-dimensional holographic black holes, which are constrained to mimic the lattice QCD equation of state at zero density, is used to investigate the temperature and baryon chemical potential dependence of the equation of state. We also obtained the baryon charge conductivity, and the bulk and shear viscosities with a particular focus on the behavior of these observables on top of the critical end point and the line of first order phase transition predicted by the model.

    We discuss the usefulness of various lattice observables especially fluctuations to locate the QCD critical endpoint. We apply different models to interpret our results for the baryon fluctuations up to µ 8 from simulations at imaginary chemical potentials.
