4D Taylor-expanded lattice (BQS)
=================================

The so-called BQS EoS (Equation of State) module of the NSF-funded
`MUSES <https://musesframework.io/>`__ project enables to calculate a 4D
equation of state of nuclear matter, at finite temperature :math:`T` and
finite baryon number, electric charge and strangeness chemical
potentials :math:`\mu_B`, :math:`\mu_Q` and :math:`\mu_S`, respectively.
It is based on a 3-dimensional Taylor expansion of lattice QCD data
computed at zero chemical potentials.

It can be used to compute a nuclear equation of state for a temperature
range of :math:`30 < T < 800` MeV, and for chemical potential values of
:math:`0 < \mu_i < 450` MeV (with :math:`i=B/Q/S`).
