Vector-Meson Spin Alignment from Anisotropic Quark or Hadron Coalescence
Wen-Bo Dong, Xin-Li Sheng, Yi-Liang Yin +2
The distribution of particles is highly anisotropic in the initial stage of a heavy-ion collision. In this paper we demonstrate that this anisotropy induces a sizable effect on the…

Hyperon spin correlation in high-energy heavy-ion collisions
Xin-Li Sheng, Xiang-Yu Wu, Dirk H. Rischke +1
Recent experimental data show an unexpectedly large spin alignment of mesons in high-energy heavy-ion collisions, which can be explained by short-distance fluctuations of stro…

Spin alignment of vector mesons in heavy-ion collision
Xin-Li Sheng, Qun Wang
We give a brief review on the spin alignment induced by the strong field and the shear-stress tensor. In experiments, a significant positive deviation from 1/3 is observed for the…
