Abstract
A noninteracting hadron resonance gas model is used often to study the hadronic phase formed in heavy ion collisions. Interaction among various hadronic constituents can be included using an S-matrix-based virial expansion approach. The virial coefficients require the dynamical information about the scattering phase shifts, which is used to compute various thermodynamic observables of an interacting hadronic gas. The attractive part of the phase shifts are calculated using K-matrix formalism while the repulsive part is obtained by fitting to experimental data. Calculation of various thermodynamic variables like pressure, energy density, specific heat capacity, etc., along with the second and higher-order correlations and fluctuations of conserved charges are done, first with only attraction and then with both attraction and repulsion included. Comparison of S-matrix results indicate a better agreement with lattice QCD data than the ideal HRG model across all thermodynamic variables.
