We propose the weak magnetic effect, which emerges in quark-gluon plasma close to local thermal equilibrium as the dissipative correction to the quark phase space distribution function, as a novel contribution to the observed Lambda hyperon local spin polarization. With a finite field strength, which is consistent with previous estimate of the magnetic field in heavy-ion collisions, one is able to explain the experimentally observed Lambda local spin polarization through all centrality classes. Moreover, the weak magnetic effect plays an unambiguous role in the ordering between the second-order and the third-order modulations of the Lambda local spin polarization in experiments.

  1. Spin alignment of vector mesons in local equilibrium by Zubarev's approach

    hep-ph 2024-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    The spin alignment rho00-1/3 vanishes at first order in gradients in local equilibrium, with nonzero contributions first appearing at second order, in a pseudo-gauge dependent way.

  2. Transverse and longitudinal spin alignment from color fields in heavy ion collisions

    nucl-th 2024-11 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Spin alignment of phi mesons along the beam direction is predicted to exceed 1/3 for glasma fields and to show a sign-changing rapidity pattern for isotropic QGP color fields, offering a discriminating observable.
