Polarization and Chirality: the quantum features of the Quark Gluon Plasma

Nuclear Theory 2019-02-20 v1 High Energy Physics - Phenomenology

Abstract

Polarization and chirality are direct manifestations of quantum mechanics in the Quark Gluon Plasma as a relativistic fluid. This is one of the reasons why they are intriguing phenomena, that have attracted so much attention lately. In this talk I will review what is, in my view, the current theoretical understanding and highlight the most interesting recent result.
