Relativistic spin dynamics for vector mesons

Xin-Li Sheng, Lucia Oliva, Zuo-Tang Liang +2

We propose a relativistic theory for spin density matrices of vector mesons based on Kadanoff-Baym equations in the closed-time-path formalism. The theory puts the calculation of s…

Spin alignment of vector mesons in heavy-ion collisions

Xin-Li Sheng, Lucia Oliva, Zuo-Tang Liang +2

Polarized quarks and antiquarks in high-energy heavy-ion collisions can lead to the spin alignment of vector mesons formed by quark coalescence. Using the relativistic spin Boltzma…
