Polarized Baryon Production in Heavy Ion Collisions: An Analytic Hydrodynamical Study

Polarized Baryon Production in Heavy Ion Collisions: An Analytic Hydrodynamical Study

In this paper, we utilize known exact analytic solutions of perfect fluid hydrodynamics to analytically calculate the polarization of baryons produced in heavy-ion collisions. Assuming local thermodynamical equilibrium also for spin degrees of freedom, baryons get a net polarization at their formati...
