Global hyperon polarization in low-energy heavy ion collisions -- a scenario without vorticity
Feng Liu, Zhoudunming Tu
Since its discovery, global polarization of the hyperon in heavy-ion collisions has been firmly established and is widely attributed to the large vorticity generated in the ro…
Quantum decoherence of hyperon spin correlations in QCD hadronization
Feng Liu, Zhoudunming Tu
Hadronization, the transition of quarks and gluons into hadrons, lies beyond the reach of perturbative quantum chromodynamics (QCD) and is commonly described by the semiclassical L…
Measuring spin correlation between quarks during QCD confinement
The STAR Collaboration
The vacuum is now understood to possess a rich and complex structure, characterized by fluctuating energy fields and a condensate of virtual quark-antiquark pairs. The spontaneous…
Entanglement as a probe of hadronization
Jaydeep Datta, Abhay Deshpande, Dmitri E. Kharzeev +2
Recently, it was discovered that the proton structure at high energies exhibits maximal entanglement. This leads to a simple relation between the proton's parton distributions and…
QCD evolution of entanglement entropy
Martin Hentschinski, Dmitri E. Kharzeev, Krzysztof Kutak +1
Entanglement entropy has emerged as a novel tool for probing nonperturbative quantum chromodynamics (QCD) phenomena, such as color confinement in protons. While recent studies have…
A study of nuclear structure of light nuclei at the Electron-Ion Collider
Niseem Magdy, Mariam Hegazy, Aliaa Rafaat +6
Understanding the substructure of atomic nuclei, particularly the clustering of nucleons inside them, is essential for comprehending nuclear dynamics. Various cluster configuration…
