Thermal dilepton polarization and dynamics of the QCD plasma in relativistic heavy-ion collisions

Xiang-Yu Wu, Han Gao, Bailey Forster +3

We present the first theoretical study of the polarization of lepton pairs produced in $\sqrt{s_{\mathrm{NN}}}=5.02$ TeV Pb+Pb collisions at the LHC, using next-to-leading order (N…
