Quarkonium in a bulk viscous QGP medium

Lata Thakur, Yuji Hirono, Najmul Haque

The non-equilibrium properties of quark-gluon plasma (QGP) have been a topic of intensive research. In this contribution, we explore the nature of heavy quarkonia immersed in a QGP…

Spectral functions of heavy quarkonia in a bulk-viscous quark gluon plasma

Lata Thakur, Yuji Hirono

We study the properties of quarkonia inside a bulk-viscous quark gluon plasma. The non-equilibrium nature of the medium is encoded in the deformed distribution functions of thermal…

Heavy quarkonia in a bulk viscous medium

Lata Thakur, Najmul Haque, Yuji Hirono

We study the properties of heavy quarkonia in a quark-gluon plasma in the presence of bulk viscous effects. Within the hard thermal loop approximation at one-loop, the dielectric p…

Magnetic fields in heavy ion collisions: flow and charge transport

Gabriele Inghirami, Mark Mace, Yuji Hirono +3

At the earliest times after a heavy-ion collision, the magnetic field created by the spectator nucleons will generate an extremely strong, albeit rapidly decreasing in time, magnet…

New quantum effects in relativistic magnetohydrodynamics

Yuji Hirono, Dmitri E. Kharzeev, Yi Yin

Chiral anomaly induces a new kind of macroscopic quantum behavior in relativistic magnetohydrodynamics, including the chiral magnetic effect. In this talk we present two new quantu…

Chiral magnetohydrodynamics for heavy-ion collisions

Yuji Hirono

The chiral magnetic effect (CME) is a macroscopic transport effect resulting from the chiral anomaly. We review the recent progress in theoretical understanding the properties of c…

Quantized chiral magnetic current from reconnections of magnetic flux

Yuji Hirono, Dmitri E. Kharzeev, Yi Yin

We introduce a new mechanism for the chiral magnetic effect that does not require an initial chirality imbalance. The chiral magnetic current is generated by reconnections of magne…

Charge-dependent correlations from event-by-event anomalous hydrodynamics

Yuji Hirono, Tetsufumi Hirano, Dmitri E. Kharzeev

We report on our recent attempt of quantitative modeling of the Chiral Magnetic Effect (CME) in heavy-ion collisions. We perform 3+1 dimensional anomalous hydrodynamic simulations…

The chiral magnetic effect in heavy-ion collisions from event-by-event anomalous hydrodynamics

Yuji Hirono, Tetsufumi Hirano, Dmitri E. Kharzeev

The (3+1)D relativistic hydrodynamics with chiral anomaly is used to obtain a quantitative description of the chiral magnetic effect (CME) in heavy-ion collisions. We find that the…

Femtoscopic signature of strong radial flow in high-multiplicity collisions

Yuji Hirono, Edward Shuryak

Hydrodynamic simulations are used to calculate the identical pion HBT radii, as a function of the pair momentum . This dependence is sensitive to the magnitude of the co…

Domain Walls and Vortices in Chiral Symmetry Breaking

Minoru Eto, Yuji Hirono, Muneto Nitta

We study domain walls and vortices in chiral symmetry breaking in a QCD-like theory with N flavors in the chiral limit. If the axial anomaly is absent, there exist stable Abelian a…

Vortices and Other Topological Solitons in Dense Quark Matter

Minoru Eto, Yuji Hirono, Muneto Nitta +1

In this review, we discuss various properties of topological solitons in dense QCD matter, with a particular emphasis on the CFL phase exhibiting superfluidity and superconductivit…

Anisotropic Optical Response of Dense Quark Matter under Rotation: Compact Stars as Cosmic Polarizers

Yuji Hirono, Muneto Nitta

Quantum vortices in the color-flavor locked (CFL) phase of QCD have bosonic degrees of freedom, called the orientational zero modes, localized on them. We show that the orientation…

Topological Interactions of Non-Abelian Vortices with Quasi-Particles in High Density QCD

Yuji Hirono, Takuya Kanazawa, Muneto Nitta

Non-Abelian vortices are topologically stable objects in the color-flavor locked (CFL) phase of dense QCD. We derive a dual Lagrangian starting with the Ginzburg-Landau effective L…
