Lambda and Antilambda polarization in Au-Au collisions at RHIC

Recent experiments at RHIC have shown that in 200 GeV Au-Au collisions, the Lambda and Antilambda hyperons are produced with very small polarizations [1], almost consistent with zero. These results can be understood in terms of a model that we recently proposed [2]. In this work, we show how this model may be applied in such collisions, and also will discuss the relation of our results with other models, in order to explain the experimental data.

Antihyperon polarization in high-energy inclusive reactions

We propose a model for the antihyperon polarization in high-energy proton-nucleus inclusive reactions, based on the final-state interactions between the antihyperons and other produced particles (predominantly pions). To formulate this idea, we use the previously obtained low-energy pion-(anti-)hyperon interaction using effective chiral Lagrangians, and a hydrodynamic parametrization of the background matter, which expands and decouples at a certain freezeout temperature.
