In this paper, we study temperature fluctuations in the initial stages of the relativistic heavy ion collision using a multiphase transport model. We consider the plasma in the initial stages after collision before it has a chance to equilibrate. We have considered [Formula: see text] collision with a center-of-mass energy of 200 GeV. We use the nonextensive Tsallis statistics to find the entropic index in the partonic stages of the relativistic heavy ion collisions. We find that the temperature and the entropic index have a linear relationship during the partonic stages of the heavy ion collision. This has already been observed in the hadronic phase. A detailed analysis of the dependence of the entropic index on the system shows that for increasing spacetime rapidity, the entropic index of the partonic system increases. The entropic index also depends on the beam collision energy. The calculation of the entropic index from the experimental data fitting of the transverse momenta deals with the hadronic phase. However, our study shows that the behavior of the entropic index in the initial nonequilibrium stage of the collision is very similar to the behavior of the entropic index in the hadronic stage.

I give an introductory overview of the search for the critical point in the phase diagram of QCD in the context of heavy-ion collisions from a theoretical perspective. The focus is on static and dynamic critical physics and the corresponding properties of particle number fluctuations as relevant examples of promising observables for signatures of a critical point in beam-energy scan experiments.
