Description
We present the first prediction of a QCD critical point (CP) from a Bayesian analysis constrained by first principle results at zero baryon density. We employ the gauge/gravity duality to map QCD onto a theory of dual black holes. Predictions for the CP location in different realizations of the model overlap at one sigma. Even if many prior samples do not include a CP, one is found in nearly 100% of posterior samples, indicating a strong preference for a CP.
