Based on the Kharzeev-McLerran-Warringa (KMW) model that estimates strong electromagnetic (EM) fields generated in relativistic heavy-ion collisions, we generalize the formulas of EM fields in the vacuum by incorporating the longitudinal position dependence, the generalized charge distributions and retardation correction. We further generalize the formulas of EM fields in the pure quark-gluon plasma (QGP) medium by incorporating a constant Ohm electric conductivity and also during the realistic early-time stages QGP evolution by using a time-dependent electric conductivity. Using the extended KMW model, we observe a slower time evolution and a more reasonable impact parameter $b$ dependence of the magnetic field strength than those from the original KMW model in the vacuum. The inclusion of medium effects by using the lattice data helps to further prolong the time evolution of magnetic field, such that the magnetic field strength during the realistic QGP evolution at thermal freeze-out time can meet the $1sigma$ bound constrained from experimentally measured difference in global polarizations of $Lambda$ and $bar{Lambda}$ hyperons in Au+Au collisions at top RHIC energy. These generalized formulations in the extended KMW model will be potentially useful for many EM fields relevant studies in heavy-ion collisions, especially at lower colliding energies and for various species of colliding nuclei.

We investigate the two-particle intensity correlation function of $Lambda$ in relativistic heavy-ion collisions. We find that the behavior of the $LambdaLambda$ correlation function at small relative momenta is fairly sensitive to the interaction potential and collective flows. By comparing the results of different source functions and potentials, we explore the effect of intrinsic collective motions on the correlation function. We find that the recent STAR data gives a strong constraint on the scattering length and effective range of $LambdaLambda$ interaction as, $-1.8 mathrm{fm}^{-1} < 1/a_0 < -0.8 mathrm{fm}^{-1}$ and $3.5 mathrm{fm} < r_mathrm{eff} < 7 mathrm{fm}$, respectively,if $Lambda$ samples do not include feed-down contribution from long-lived particles. We find that feed-down correction for $Sigma^0$ decay reduces the sensitivity of the correlation function to the detail of the $LambdaLambda$ interaction. As a result, we obtain a weaker constraint $1/a_0 <-0.8$ fm$^{-1}$. Implication for the signal of existence of $H$-dibaryon is discussed. Comparison with the scattering parameters obtained from the double $Lambda$ hypernucleus may reveal in-medium effects in the $LambdaLambda$ interaction.
Using the string melting version of a multiphase transport (AMPT) model, we focus on the evolution of thermodynamic properties of the central cell of parton matter produced in Au+Au collisions ranging from 200 GeV down to 2.7 GeV. The temperature and baryon chemical potential are calculated for Au+Au collisions at different energies to locate their evolution trajectories in the QCD phase diagram. The evolution of pressure anisotropy indicates that only partial thermalization can be achieved, especially at lower energies. Through event-by-event temperature fluctuations, we present the specific heat of the partonic matter as a function of temperature and baryon chemical potential that is related to the partonic matters approach to equilibrium.
We develop for charmed hadron production in relativistic heavy-ion collisions a comprehensive coalescence model that includes an extensive set of $s$ and $p$-wave hadronic states as well as the strict energy-momentum conservation, which ensures the boost invariance of the coalescence probability and the thermal limit of the produced hadron spectrum. By combining our hadronization scheme with an advanced Langevin-hydrodynamics model that incorporates both elastic and inelastic energy loss of heavy quarks inside the dynamical quark-gluon plasma, we obtain a successful description of the $p_mathrm{T}$-integrated and differential $Lambda_c/D^0$ and $D_s/D^0$ ratios measured at RHIC and the LHC. We find that including the effect of radial flow of the medium is essential for describing the enhanced $Lambda_c/D^0$ ratio observed in relativistic heavy-ion collisions. We also find that the puzzling larger $Lambda_c/D^0$ ratio observed in Au+Au collisions at RHIC than in Pb+Pb collisions at the LHC is due to the interplay between the effects of the QGP radial flow and the charm quark transverse momentum spectrum at hadronization. Our study further suggests that charmed hadrons have larger sizes in medium than in vacuum.
Based on a generalized side-jump formalism for massless chiral fermions, which naturally takes into account the spin-orbit coupling in the scattering of two chiral fermions and the chiral vortical effect in a rotating chiral fermion matter, we have developed a covariant and total angular momentum conserved chiral transport model to study both the global and local polarizations of this matter. For a system of massless quarks of random spin orientations and finite vorticity in a box, we have demonstrated that the model can exactly conserve the total angular momentum of the system and dynamically generate the quark spin polarization expected from a thermally equilibrated quark matter. Using this model to study the spin polarization in relativistic heavy-ion collision, we have found that the local quark spin polarizations depend strongly on the reference frame where they are evaluated as a result of the nontrivial axial charge distribution caused by the chiral vortical effect. We have further shown that because of the anomalous orbital or side-jump contribution to the quark spin polarization, the local quark polarizations calculated in the medium rest frame are qualitatively consistent with the local polarizations of Lambda hyperons measured in experiments.
The LHC data on azimuthal anisotropy harmonics from PbPb collisions at center-of-mass energy 2.76 TeV per nucleon pair are analyzed and interpreted in the framework of the HYDJET++ model. The cross-talk of elliptic $v_2$ and triangular $v_3$ flow in the model generates both even and odd harmonics of higher order. Comparison with the experimental data shows that this mechanism is able to reproduce the $p_{rm T}$ and centrality dependencies of quadrangular flow $v_4$, and also the basic trends for pentagonal $v_5$ and hexagonal $v_6$ flows.
