Abstract

We present results for the QCD equation of state, quark densities, and susceptibilities at nonzero chemical potential, using 2+1 flavor asqtad ensembles with Nt=4. The ensembles lie on a trajectory of constant physics for which mud≈0.1ms. The calculation is performed using the Taylor expansion method with terms up to sixth order in μ/T.
