Thermodynamics of the First Order Phase Transition of Quark-Gluon Plasma

The quark-gluon plasma at the stage of thermodynamic equilibrium is reviewed, focusing on the quark hadron phase transition and the color superconducting phases of quark-gluon matter using phase diagrams. We analyze lattice QCD results concerning the order of the phase transition in quark-gluon plasma. Additionally, we explore aspects of atomic Fermi gas in the unitary limit during the first order transition and consider the equation of state and the critical temperature for pair condensation. The strongly interacting phase transition, particularly the Quark-Hadron phase transition, is also discussed.
