Shear induced polarization: collisional contributions

Abstract It has been realized that thermal shear plays a similar role as thermal vorticity in polarizing spin of particles in heavy ion collisions. We point out that shear has a funda- mental difference that it leads to particle redistribution in the medium. The redistribution gives rise to an addit...
