Recent applications of THERMUS

Some of the most recent applications of the statistical-thermal model package, THERMUS, are reviewed. These applications focus on fluctuation and correlation observables in an ideal particle and anti-particle gas in limited momentum space segments, as well as in a hadron resonance gas. In the case of the latter, a Monte Carlo event generator, utilising THERMUS functionality and assuming thermal production of hadrons, is discussed. The system under consideration is sampled grand canonically in the Boltzmann approximation. A re-weighting scheme is then introduced to account for conservation of charges (baryon number, strangeness, electric charge) and energy and momentum, effectively allowing for extrapolation of grand canonical results to the micro canonical limit. The approach utilised in this and other applications suggests improvements to existing THERMUS calculations.
