Deconfinement and the Charge Susceptibility Matrix of QCD

At sufficiently high temperatures, lattice Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) calculations predict that nuclear matter undergoes a rapid crossover to a novel, deconfined state known as the quark-gluon plasma (QGP), in which quark flavors essentially behave like independent particles. Here we explore the nature of this transi...
