Hot quark soup produced at RHIC
Parity violation in strong interactions
In QCD, chiral symmetry breaking is due to a non-trivial topological effect; among
the best evidence of this physics would be event-by-event strong parity violation.
The volume of the box is 2.4 by 2.4 by 3.6
fm.
The topological charge density of 4D gluon
field configurations. (Lattice-based
animation by Derek Leinweber)
Energy of gluonic field is periodic in NCS
direction (~ a generalized coordinate)
Dynamics is a random walk
between states with different
topological charges.
Instantons and sphalerons are
localized (in space and time) solutions
describing transitions between different
vacua via tunneling or go-over-barrier
In the vicinity of the of the deconfinement
phase transition QCD vacuum can posses
metastable domain leading to P and PC
violation
Topological charge fluctuations in
gluodynamical vacuum
Buividovich, Kalaijan, Polikarpov
Chiral magnetic effect
These transitions with changing the topological charge involve
configurations which may violate P and CP invariance of strong
interactions. Fermions can interact with a gauge field configurations,
transforming left- into right-handed quarks and vice-versa via the
axial anomaly and thus resulting in generated asymmetry between
left- and right-handed fermions. In this states a balance between lefthanded and right-handed quarks is destroyed, NL-NR=2NFQw →
violation of P-, CP- symmetry.
Dynamics is a random walk between states with different topological
charges. Average total topological charge vanishes <nw>=0 but
variance is equal to the total number of transitions <nw2>=Nt
In the presence of inbalanced chirality a magnetic field induces
a current along the the magnetic field.

In the absence of topological charge no asymmetry between left and
right (fig.1) ;the fluctuation of topological charge (fig.2) in the presence
of magnetic field induces electric current (fig.3)
Charge separation in HIC: CP violation signal
Magnetic field through the axial anomaly induces a parallel electric field which will
separate different charges
L or B
Non-zero angular momentum
(or equivalently magnetic field)
in heavy-ion collisions make it
possible for P- and CP-odd
domains to induce charge
separation (D.Kharzeev, PL B
633 (2006) 260).
Measuring the charge
separation with respect to the
reaction plane was proposed
by S.Voloshin, Phys. Rev. C

Characteristic parameters for the CME
The lifetimes are estimated at eBcrit=0.2mπ2 and εcrit=1 GeV/fm3
for Au+Au collisions with b=10 fm (KAu=2.52 10-2 )
 For all energies of interest τB < τε
 The CME increases with energy decrease till the top SPS/NICA energy
 If compare √sNN = 200 and 62 GeV, the increase is too strong !
The calculated CME for Au+Au collisions
Calculated correlators for Au+Au (b=10 fm) collisions at
√sNN=200 and 62 GeV agree with experimental values for
eBcrit ≈ 0.7 mπ2 , K=6.05 10-2. No effect for the top SPS energy!
In a first approximation, the CME may be considered as linear in b/R

Transport model with electromagnetic field
The Boltzmann equation is the basis of QMD like models:
Generalized on-shell transport equations in the presence of electromagnetic
fields can be obtained formally by the substitution:
A general solution of the wave equations

● Maximal magnetic field is reached during nuclear overlapping time
Δt~0.2 fm/c, then the field goes down exponentially.

Charge separation in PHSD

PR C86, 014963 (2011)
The partonic scalar potential is
overestimated in PHSD getting
comparable the charge separation
with those at LHC
Both in-plane and out-of-plane components needs an
additional sizable source of asymmetry rather than only
out-of-plane component as expected from CME
Conclusions
●The HSD/PHSD transport model with retarded electromagnetic fields
has been developed.
●The magnetic field and energy density of the deconfined matter
reach very high values.
● Phenomenological analysis predicts disappearance of CME at the
energy about the top SPS energy but too small effect at the LHC
energy
● Actual calculations show no noticeable influence of the created
electromagnetic fields on observables. It is due to a compensating
effect in action of transverse components of electric and magnetic
fields on the quasiparticle transport.
● First low-energy experiments within the RHIC BES program at √sNN
= 7.7 and 11.5 GeV can be explained within (pure) hadronic scenario
without reference to the spontaneous local CP violation.
● Direct inclusion of quarks and gluons in evolution (PHSD model)
shows that the partonic scalar potential is overestimated. The new
source does not dominate in out-of-plane direction as could be
expected for the CME but both in-plane and out-of-plane components
contribute with a comparable strength (explicit color d.o.f. ?).
● The CME measurements are still puzzling.
