Summary
16
PHSD provides a consistent description of off-shell parton dynamics in line with a lattice QCD equation of state and incorporates dynamical hadronization in line with conservation laws
PHSD gives harder mT spectra and works better than HSD at RHIC and at high SPS energies
The The quark-number scaling of v2 holds fairly well in PHSD at RHIC
PHSD within a box allows to study the dynamical equilibration of strongly interacting parton matter
