Abstract:
Relativistic collisions of neutron stars and heavy ions do both create exotic hot and dense QCD matter in the Universe, and in the Laboratory, respectively. The phase structure of this highly excited and compressed matter can be unravelled from the cosmic data and corresponding accelerator data by a consistent general relativistic fluid dynamical model, which predicts a strong sensitivity of the emitted gravitational wave signal to phase transitions in the EoS, in the kilo Hertz region, which corresponds to a strong anti-flow signal predicted at FAIR- CBM/HADES and RHIC-BES/STAR.
