S. Abdallah et al. (The STAR Collaboration) Phys. Rev. C 107, 024908 (2023) – Published 13 February 2023 Various models of the QCD phase diagram favor a first-order phase transition to quark-gluon plasma, and therefore a critical endpoint which could manifest itself in measurable fluctuations and correlations. The authors report measurements of the moments of the net proton multiplicity fluctuations (cumulants) and correlation functions from the RHIC beam energy scan. They establish that at √sNN=3 GeV the produced system is dominated by hadronic rather than thermal interactions. This puts a limit on the search for the elusive critical point in the QCD phase diagram to energies higher than 3 GeV.     Editors' Suggestion Low-pT direct-photon production in Au+Au collisions at √sNN=39 and 62.4 GeV N. J. Abdulameer et al. (PHENIX Collaboration) Phys. Rev. C 107, 024914 (2023) – Published 24 February 2023 The PHENIX experiment at RHIC presents a measurement of thermal photons emitted from the quark-gluon plasma produced in collisions of Au ions at √sNN=39 and 62.4 GeV. The yield of these photons exceeds what is expected from appropriately scaled proton collisions and is qualitatively consistent with a significant thermal contribution. Compared to results from other beam energies, the data suggest that the bulk of thermal photons are emitted under similar conditions near the transition of the quark-gluon plasma to hadronic matter.     Editors' Suggestion Equation of state of superfluid neutron matter with low-momentum interactions Viswanathan Palaniappan, S. Ramanan, and Michael Urban Phys. Rev. C 107, 025804 (2023) – Published 15 February 2023 The behavior of the unbound neutrons in the inner crust of neutron stars is linked to various neutron-star characteristics such as glitches in the repetition rate of pulsars. This paper presents a novel calculation of low-density superfluid neutron matter using techniques and interactions previously applied to the study of finite nuclei. The starting point is a two-body interaction softened using renormalization-group techniques. The resulting interaction is used in a Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov calculation that includes pairing. This provides a good starting point for the many-body perturbation expansion, and for including more sophisticated nuclear interactions in future work.     Editors' Suggestion Letter Microscopic aspects of γ softness in atomic nuclei Nazira Nazir, S. Jehangir, S. P. Rouoof, G. H. Bhat, J. A. Sheikh, N. Rather, and S. Frauendorf Phys. Rev. C 107, L021303 (2023) – Published 14 February 2023 One of the main research themes in quantum many-body systems is the emergence of collective features from microscopic degrees of freedom. Using the microscopic approach of the triaxial projected shell model, the authors demonstrate that admixing a few quasiparticle excitations into the vacuum configuration with a fixed triaxiality parameter γ provides a quantitative description of the shape fluctuations of the γ-soft nucleus 104Ru. The collective features are elucidated using the quadrupole shape invariant analysis, and also the staggering phase classification of the γ band.     LETTERS Letter Spectroscopy along flerovium decay chains.
