Two-component source to explain and global polarization in non-central heavy-ion collisions
A. Ayala, E. Cuautle, I. Domínguez +3
The STAR Beam Energy Scan program has found a difference in the global polarization of s and s produced in collisions. This difference is larger for lower center…
Quark spin - thermal vorticity alignment and the Lambda, anti-Lambda polarization in heavy-ion collisions
Alejandro Ayala, David de la Cruz, L. A. Hernández +2
It has been proposed that the and polarizations observed in heavy-ion collisions are due to the interaction between quark spin and thermal vorticity. In this work…
Core meets corona: a two-component source to explain Lambda and anti-Lambda global polarization in semi-central heavy-ion collisions
Alejandro Ayala, Marco Alberto Ayala Torres, Eleazar Cuautle +9
We compute the Lambda and anti-Lambda global polarization in semi-central heavy-ion collisions modeling the source as consisting of a high-density core and a less dense corona. We…
Relaxation time for the alignment between the spin of a finite-mass quark/antiquark and the thermal vorticity in relativistic heavy-ion collisions
Alejandro Ayala, David de la Cruz, L. A. Hernández +1
We study the relaxation time required for the alignment between the spin of a finite-mass quark/antiquark and the thermal vorticity, at finite temperature and baryon chemical poten…
