重离子碰撞中夸克自旋-热涡度排列和λ、反λ极化

Quark spin - thermal vorticity alignment and the Lambda, anti-Lambda polarization in heavy-ion collisions

摘要:

在重离子碰撞中观察到的$Λ$和$\overlineΛ$极化是由于夸克自旋和热涡的相互作用引起的。在这项工作中,我们报告的弛豫时间的计算需要这种对齐发生在有限的温度和重子化学势,考虑夸克与有限的质量。计算是在模拟相互作用后进行的,通过一个有效的顶点耦合的热胶子和夸克内的涡旋介质。我们表明,与无质量夸克的情况相比,夸克质量的影响是减少弛豫时间。夸克/反夸克的内禀全局极化出现,它与$Λ$ / $\barΛ$极化有关。

英文摘要:

It has been proposed that the $Λ$ and $\overlineΛ$ polarizations observed in heavy-ion collisions are due to the interaction between quark spin and thermal vorticity. In this work we report on a computation of the relaxation time required for this alignment to occur at finite temperature and baryon chemical potential, considering quarks with a finite mass. The calculation is performed after modelling the interaction by means of an effective vertex which couples the thermal gluons and quarks within the vortical medium. We show that the effect of the quark mass is to reduce the relaxation time as compared to the massless quark case. An intrinsic global polarization of quarks/antiquarks emerges which is shown to be linked with the $Λ$/$\barΛ$ polarization.
