Photon polarization asymmetry in mesons and muon radiative decays and the axial anomaly
We have computed meson and muon polarized radiative decays.
The undergoing dynamics giving rise to lepton and photon polarizations is examined in the soft and hard region of momenta. The particular configurations made by right-handed leptons with accompanying photons are investigated and interpreted as a manifestation of th axial anomaly. The photon polarization asymmetry is evaluated. Finiteness of polarized amplitudes against infrared and collinear singularities is shown to take place with mechanisms distinguishing between right handed and left handed final leptons
and production from deconfined matter in relativistic heavy ion collisions at CERN SPS
We investigate the production of the Phi meson and the Omega baryon which interact weakly with hot hadronic matter, and thus their spectra reflect the early stage of the heavy ion collisions. Our analysis shows that the hadronization temperature, T_had, and the transverse flow, v_T, of the initial deconfined phase are strongly correlated: T_had + a * (v_T)**2 = 0.25 GeV, where a=0.37 GeV in the Pb+Pb collision at 158 AGeV/c. When choosing appropriate initial values of T_had and v_T from the temperature region T_had=175 +- 15 MeV, the measured Rho meson spectra was reproduced surprisingly well by the MICOR model. We have found weak influence of final state hadronic interactions on the transverse hadron spectra at m_T - m_i > 0.3 GeV.We investigate the production of the Phi meson and the Omega baryon which interact weakly with hot hadronic matter, and thus their spectra reflect the early stage of the heavy ion collisions.

Chiral Magnetic Effect in the Dirac-Heisenberg-Wigner formalism
In this paper the emergence of the Chiral Magnetic Effect (CME) and the related anomalous current is investigated using the real time Dirac–Heisenberg–Wigner formalism. This method is widely used for describing strong field physics and QED vacuum tunneling phenomena as well as pair production in heavy-ion collisions. We extend earlier investigations of the CME in constant flux tube configuration by considering time dependent electric and magnetic fields. In this model we can follow the formation of axial charge separation, formation of axial current and then the emergence of the anomalous electric current. Qualitative results are shown for special field configurations that help to interpret the predictions of CME related effects in heavy-ion collisions at the RHIC Beam Energy Scan program
