Universal relations between non-Gaussian fluctuations in heavy-ion collisions

We show that universality near a critical end point implies a characteristic relation between third- and fourth-order baryon susceptibilities χ₃ and χ₄, resulting in a banana-shaped loop when χ₄ is plotted as a function of χ₃ along a freeze-out line. This result relies only on the derivative relatio...
