Abstract

Description

We determined the curvature of the phase transition line in the mu-T plane using a Taylor expansion in mu. The Polyakov loop and the strange quark number susceptibility were measured to locate the pseudocritical line. The analysis was carried out on Nt=4,6,8,10 lattices generated with a Symanzik improved gauge and stout-link improved (2+1) flavour staggered fermion action using physical quark masses.
