In search of chiral magnetic effect: separating flow-driven background effects and quantifying anomaly-induced charge separations

Xu-Guang Huang, Yi Yin, Jinfeng Liao

We report our recent progress on the search of Chiral Magnetic Effect (CME) by developing new measurements as well as by hydrodynamic simulations of CME and background effects, wit…

Analogy between rotation and density for Dirac fermions in a magnetic field

Hao-Lei Chen, Kenji Fukushima, Xu-Guang Huang +1

We analyse the energy spectra of Dirac fermions in the presence of rotation and magnetic field. We find that the Landau degeneracy is resolved by rotation. A drastic change in the…

Spin-polarized neutron matter: Critical unpairing and BCS-BEC precursor

Martin Stein, Armen Sedrakian, Xu-Guang Huang +1

We obtain the critical magnetic field required for complete destruction of -wave pairing in neutron matter, thereby setting limits on the pairing and superfluidity of neutrons i…

Chiral phase transition and Schwinger mechanism in a pure electric field

Gaoqing Cao, Xu-Guang Huang

We systematically study the chiral symmetry breaking and restoration in the presence of a pure electric field in the Nambu--Jona-Lasinio (NJL) model at finite temperature and baryo…

Electromagnetic triangle anomaly and neutral pion condensation in QCD vacuum

Gaoqing Cao, Xu-Guang Huang

We study the QCD vacuum structure under the influence of an electromagnetic field with a nonzero second Lorentz invariant . We show that the presence of $…

Electromagnetic fields and anomalous transports in heavy-ion collisions --- A pedagogical review

Xu-Guang Huang

The hot and dense matter generated in heavy-ion collisions may contain domains which are not invariant under P and CP transformations. Moreover, heavy-ion collisions can generate e…

Simulating Chiral Magnetic and Separation Effects with Spin-Orbit Coupled Atomic Gases

Xu-Guang Huang

The chiral magnetic and chiral separation effects---quantum-anomaly-induced electric current and chiral current along an external magnetic field in parity-odd quark-gluon plasma---…

Chiral vortical wave and induced flavor charge transport in a rotating quark-gluon plasma

Yin Jiang, Xu-Guang Huang, Jinfeng Liao

We show the existence of a new gapless collective excitation in a rotating fluid system with chiral fermions, named as the Chiral Vortical Wave (CVW). The CVW has its microscopic o…

Possible observables for the chiral electric separation effect in Cu + Au collisions

Guo-Liang Ma, Xu-Guang Huang

The quark-gluon plasma (QGP) generated in relativistic heavy-ion collisions could be locally parity-odd. In parity-odd QGP, the electric field may induce a chiral current which is…
