Polarization has opened a new physics chapter in relativistic heavy-ion collisions. Since the first prediction and experimental observation of global spin polarization, a lot of progress has been made in understanding its features, both at experimental and theoretical level. In this paper, we give an overview on the recent advances in this field. The covered topics include a review of measurements of global and local spin polarization of hyperons and the global spin alignment of vector mesons. We account for the basic theoretical framework to describe spin polarization in a relativistic fluid such as the Quark Gluon Plasma, including statistical quantum field theory and local thermodynamic equilibrium, spin hydrodynamics, relativistic kinetic theory with spin and coalescence models.

An improved formula for Wigner function and spin polarization in a decoupling relativistic fluid at local thermodynamic equilibrium
A new derivation gives the spin polarization of emitted fermions in terms of thermal vorticity and shear evaluated on the decoupling surface, with the shear term expressed through the local hypersurface normal rather ...

Local Spin Polarization in Anisotropic Gubser Flow: Suppression Mechanism and Formulation Dependence
In an anisotropic Gubser flow, the longitudinal spin polarization's sign depends on which shear formulation is used, and two popular formulations show exact or near-exact cancellation between vorticity and shear contr...

Spectral Functions of $J/\psi$ Meson in Rotating Thermal Background from Holography
In a rotating thermal medium modeled by soft-wall holography, J/ψ spectral peaks split by −ΩJ_z along the rotation axis and acquire projection-dependent distortions for transverse momentum.

CLVisc Agent for autonomous relativistic hydrodynamics studies
An LLM agent autonomously created a CLVisc skill and ran two hydrodynamic studies, finding that the high-temperature branch of η/s dominates flow suppression and that PGCM-uniform 16O decouples ellipticity from size.

Fluid Acceleration in Heavy-Ion Collisions
In AMPT and UrQMD simulations, fluid acceleration in heavy-ion collisions reaches a few hundred MeV, peaks at fireball boundaries, and evolves from stopping-dominated deceleration at low energies to boundary/tilt puls...

Rotating synchrotron radiation: Photon emission from magnetized and rotating quark-gluon plasma
Rotation enhances synchrotron photon emission from negatively charged quarks in a magnetized QGP, producing a low-transverse-momentum v2 that can reduce the direct photon puzzle tension.

Tensor spin polarization induced by curved freeze-out hypersurface
The curvature of the freeze-out hypersurface induces a tensor spin polarization of vector mesons at leading gradient order, with predicted phi-meson spin alignment around -10^-4 to -10^-3.

Is the shear induced spin polarization non-dissipative?
Shear-induced spin polarization leaves the momentum-integrated entropy production rate unchanged in chiral kinetic theory, but Zubarev's linear response suggests a dissipative origin.

Chromomagnetic Condensate in Finite-Temperature SU(2) Yang-Mills Theory under Imaginary Rotation
At one loop, imaginary rotation in the SU(2) Savvidy model enhances the chromomagnetic condensate and effective coupling, can suppress the Nielsen-Olesen instability in a finite window, and gives a negative moment-of-...

Initial conditions and bulk viscosity effects on $\Lambda$ polarization in high-energy heavy ion collisions
Bulk viscosity determines the sign of longitudinal Lambda polarization at LHC energies in hydrodynamic simulations, and the azimuthal dependence of transverse polarization is sensitive to initial-state choices.

Local spin polarization of $\Lambda$ hyperons and its interaction corrections
The CLVisc hydrodynamic model reproduces the second sine Fourier coefficient of Lambda longitudinal polarization in Au+Au collisions but fails in p+Pb collisions; the paper also surveys quantum kinetic theory and spin...
