Improved quark coalescence model for spin alignments of vector mesons

Xin-Li Sheng

We propose an improved quark coalescence model for spin alignment of vector mesons by spin density matrix with phase space dependence. Within this model we propose an understanding…

Ideal spin hydrodynamics from Wigner function approach

Hao-Hao Peng, Jun-Jie Zhang, Xin-Li Sheng +1

Based on the Wigner function in local equilibrium, we derive hydrodynamical quantities for a system of polarized spin-1/2 particles: the particle number current density, the energy…

Space-average electromagnetic fields and EM anomaly weighted by energy density in heavy-ion collisions

Irfan Siddique, Xin-Li Sheng, Qun Wang

We study the space-average electromagnetic (EM) fields weighted by the energy density in the central regions of heavy ion collisions. These average quantities can serve as a barome…

From Kadanoff--Baym to Boltzmann equations for massive spin-1/2 fermions

Xin-Li Sheng, Nora Weickgenannt, Enrico Speranza +2

We derive Boltzmann equations for massive spin-1/2 fermions with local and nonlocal collision terms from the Kadanoff--Baym equation in the Schwinger--Keldysh formalism, properly a…

Derivation of the nonlocal collision term in the relativistic Boltzmann equation for massive spin-1/2 particles from quantum field theory

Nora Weickgenannt, Enrico Speranza, Xin-li Sheng +2

We derive the Boltzmann equation and the collision kernel for massive spin-1/2 particles, using the Wigner-function formalism and employing an expansion in powers of . The p…

Electromagnetic fields from the extended Kharzeev-McLerran-Warringa model in relativistic heavy-ion collisions

Yi Chen, Xin-Li Sheng, Guo-Liang Ma

Based on the Kharzeev-McLerran-Warringa (KMW) model that estimates strong electromagnetic (EM) fields generated in relativistic heavy-ion collisions, we generalize the formulas of…
