Spin-thermal shear coupling in relativistic nuclear collisions

M. Buzzegoli, F. Becattini, G. Inghirami +2

The spin polarization measurements of particles emitted in heavy-ion collisions have opened the possibility for new phenomenological investigations of spin physics in relativistic…

Exact equilibrium distributions in statistical quantum field theory with rotation and acceleration: Dirac field

Andrea Palermo, Matteo Buzzegoli, Francesco Becattini

We derive the general exact forms of the Wigner function, of mean values of conserved currents, of the spin density matrix, of the spin polarization vector and of the distribution…

Local polarization and isothermal local equilibrium in relativistic heavy ion collisions

F. Becattini, M. Buzzegoli, G. Inghirami +2

We show that the inclusion of a recently found additional term of the spin polarization vector at local equilibrium which is linear in the symmetrized gradients of the velocity fie…

Spin-thermal shear coupling in a relativistic fluid

F. Becattini, M. Buzzegoli, A. Palermo

We show that spin polarization of a fermion in a relativistic fluid at local thermodynamic equilibrium can be generated by the symmetric derivative of the four-temperature vector,…

Polarization as a signature of local parity violation in hot QCD matter

F. Becattini, M. Buzzegoli, A. Palermo +1

We show that local parity violation due to chirality imbalance in relativistic nuclear collisions can be revealed by measuring the projection of the polarization vector onto the mo…

Exact equilibrium distributions in statistical quantum field theory with rotation and acceleration: scalar field

F. Becattini, M. Buzzegoli, A. Palermo

We derive a general exact form of the phase space distribution function and the thermal expectation values of local operators for the free quantum scalar field at equilibrium with…
