In this talk I will show our recent lattice studies on the QCD equation of state (EoS) at non-vanishing baryon chemical potential. The QCD EoS has been calculated with Taylor expansions including contributions from up to sixth order in baryon, strangeness and electric charge chemical potentials in a temperature range between 135 and 330 MeV. Using 4 different sets of lattice cut-offs,...

Fluctuations of electric charge, baryon number and strangeness
are well defined observables in the QCD grand canonical ensemble.
They can be calculated on the lattice at zero and small chemical
potential and can be measured in the RHIC or LHC experiments at
chemical freeze-out. We review the recent lattice results for
higher moments of these fluctuations and discuss their use
in heavy...

Before the search for the Quark Gluon Plasma (QGP) commenced at RHIC, it was hoped that the QGP could be discovered through the observation of non-monotonic trends in a variety of observables. These smoking-gun signals were not observed in the data taken at higher beam energies, and the discovery of the perfect liquid QGP relied on careful comparisons between models and data. No non-monotonic...
