High order fluctuations of conserved charges in the continuum limit
Abstract
We calculate the grand canonical fluctuations of the net baryon number and net strangeness in the region of chiral crossover from lattice QCD. We continuum extrapolate the results in a finite volume using the new 4HEX discretization scheme up to χ6B and also for χ8B at a single temperature. Our results contradict recent estimates at a finite lattice spacing. See Ref. [1] for the full version of this work.
