Relativistic models can be successfully applied to the description of compact star properties in nuclear astrophysics as well as to nuclear matter and finite nuclei properties, these studies taking place at low and moderate temperatures. Nevertheless, all results are model dependent and so far it is unclear whether some of them should be discarded. Moreover, in the regime of hot hadronic matter very few calculations exist using these relativistic models, in particular when applied to particle yields in heavy ion collisions. In the present work we comment on the known constraints that can help the selection of adequate models in this regime and investigate the main differences that arise when the particle production during a Au+Au collision at RHIC is calculated with different models.

The dynamics of baryon-antibaryon annihilation and reproduction ($B{bar B} leftrightarrow 3 M$) is studied within the Parton-Hadron-String Dynamics (PHSD) transport approach for Pb+Pb and Au+Au collisions as a function of centrality from lower Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) up to Large Hadron Collider (LHC) energies on the basis of the quark rearrangement model (QRM). At Relativistic Heavy-Ion Collider (RHIC) energies we find a small net reduction of baryon-antibaryon ($B {bar B}$) pairs while for the LHC energy of $sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 2.76 GeV a small net enhancement is found relative to calculations without annihilation (and reproduction) channels. Accordingly, the sizeable difference between data and statistical calculations in Pb+Pb collisions at $sqrt{s_{NN}}$= 2.76 TeV for proton and antiproton yields cite{53}, where a deviation of 2.7 $sigma$ was claimed by the ALICE Collaboration, should not be attributed to a net antiproton annihilation. This is in line with the observation that no substantial deviation between the data and statistical hadronization model (SHM) calculations is seen for antihyperons, since according to the PHSD analysis the antihyperons should be modified by the same amount as antiprotons. As the PHSD results for particle ratios are in line with the ALICE data (within error bars) this might point towards a deviation from statistical equilibrium in the hadronization (at least for protons/antiprotons). Furthermore, we find that the $B {bar B} leftrightarrow 3 M$ reactions are more effective at lower SPS energies where a net suppression for antiprotons and antihyperons up to a factor of 2 -- 2.5 can be extracted from the PHSD calculations for central Au+Au collisions.
Heavy ion collisions provide a unique opportunity to study the nature of X(3872) compared with electron-positron and proton-proton (antiproton) collisions. With the abundant charm pairs produced in heavy-ion collisions, the production of multicharm h adrons and molecules can be enhanced by the combination of charm and anticharm quarks in the medium. We investigate the centrality and momentum dependence of X(3872) in heavy-ion collisions via the Langevin equation and instant coalescence model (LICM). When X(3872) is treated as a compact tetraquark state, the tetraquarks are produced via the coalescence of heavy and light quarks near the quantum chromodynamic (QCD) phase transition due to the restoration of the heavy quark potential at $Trightarrow T_c$. In the molecular scenario, loosely bound X(3872) is produced via the coalescence of $D^0$-$bar D^{*0}$ mesons in a hadronic medium after kinetic freeze-out. The phase space distributions of the charm quarks and D mesons in a bulk medium are studied with the Langevin equation, while the coalescence probability between constituent particles is controlled by the Wigner function, which encodes the internal structure of the formed particle. First, we employ the LICM to explain both $D^0$ and $J/psi$ production as a benchmark. Then, we give predictions regarding X(3872) production. We find that the total yield of tetraquark is several times larger than the molecular production in Pb-Pb collisions. Although the geometric size of the molecule is huge, the coalescence probability is small due to strict constraints on the relative momentum between $D^0$ and $bar D^{*0}$ in the molecular Wigner function, which significantly suppresses the molecular yield.

The quark rearrangement model for baryon-antibaryon annihilation and reproduction ($Bbar Bleftrightarrow 3M$) - incorporated in the Parton-Hadron-String Dynamics (PHSD) transport approach - is extended to the strangeness sector. A derivation of the t ransition probabilities for the three-body processes is presented and a strangeness suppression factor for the invariant matrix element squared is introduced to account for the higher mass of the strange quark compared to the light up and down quarks. In simulations of the baryon-antibaryon annihilation and reformation in a box with periodic boundary conditions we demonstrate that our numerical implementation fulfills detailed balance on a channel-by-channel basis for more than 2000 individual $2 leftrightarrow 3$ channels. Furthermore, we study central Pb+Pb collisions within PHSD from 11.7$A$ GeV to 158$A$ GeV and investigate the impact of the additionally implemented reaction channels in the strangeness sector. We find that the new reaction channels have a visible impact essentially only on the rapidity spectra of antibaryons. The spectra with the additional channels in the strangeness sector are closer to the experimental data than without for all antihyperons. Due to the chemical redistribution between baryons/antibaryons and mesons we find a slightly larger production of antiprotons thus moderately overestimating the available experimental data. We additionally address the question if the antibaryon spectra (with strangeness) from central heavy-ion reactions at these energies provide further information on the issue of chiral symmetry restoration and deconfinement. However, by comparing transport results with/without partonic phase as well as including/excluding effects from chiral symmetry restoration we find no convincing signals in the strange antibaryon sector for either transition due to the strong final-state interactions.

We discuss the helicity polarization which can be locally induced from both vorticity and helicity charge in non-central heavy ion collisions. Helicity charge redistribution can be generated in viscous fluid and contributes to azimuthal asymmetry of the polarization along global angular momentum or beam momentum. We also discuss on detecting the initial net helicity charge from topological charge fluctuation or initial color longitudinal field by the helicity polarization correlation of two hyperons and the helicity alignment of vector mesons in central heavy ion collisions.

We have studied local spin polarization in the relativistic hydrodynamic model. Generalizing the Wigner functions previously obtained from chiral kinetic theory in Ref.[1] to the massive case, we present the possible contributions up to the order of $hbar$ from thermal vorticity, shear viscous tensor, other terms associated with the temperature and chemical-potential gradients, and electromagnetic fields to the local spin polarization. We then implement the (3+1) dimensional viscous hydrodynamic model to study the spin polarizations from these sources with a small chemical potential and ignorance of electromagnetic fields by adopting an equation of state different from those in other recent studies. Although the shear correction alone upon local polarization results in the sign and azimuthal-angle dependence more consistent with experimental observations, as also discovered in other recent studies, it is mostly suppressed by the contributions from thermal vorticity and other terms that yield an opposite trend. It is found that the total local spin polarization could be very sensitive to the equation of states, the ratio of shear viscosity over entropy density, and freezeout temperature.
