Description

The $T-\mu$ phase diagram of QCD is still largely unknown. However, by means of lattice QCD simulations, it is possible to reliably study the region close to the $\mu=0$ axis and in particular the behaviour of the chiral transition in this regime. I will present our determination of the curvature of the chiral pseudocritical line from $N_f=2+1$ lattice QCD at the physical point. I will mainly focus on the results obtained by the analytic continuation method, but I will also compare with the Taylor expansion method.
