SCIENCE BRINGS NATIONS TOGETHER
MPD Polarization Meeting

Europe/Moscow

Minutes of the MPD meeting on "Vorticity and Polarization in Heavy-Ion Collisions".

Meeting’s agenda:

  • Monte-Carlo study of lambda polarization at MPD (E. Nazarova).

  • Discussion.

Main points:

  • Studied inclusive Lambda polarization, generated in DCM-QGSM via DeGrand-Markkanen-Miettinen approach (Au-Au, 9 GeV, ~100000 events, b=0 fm).
  • The approach is used for pp collisions, so doesn't account for dilution of inclusive polarization in HIC -> gives upper limit of inclusive polarization
  • Need to account for polarization of secondary Lambdas and rescattering
  • The experimental value is higher than the "true" model polarization, might indicate that acceptance effects differ in polarized/non-polarized case -> need to calculate efficiency in each case.
  • Next step: estimate global polarization extraction within MPD framework (generated by the PHSD model)
