Core meets corona: A two-component source to explain Λ and Λ‾ global polarization in semi-central heavy-ion collisions

We compute the Λ and Λ‾ global polarization in semi-central heavy-ion collisions modeling the source as consisting of a high-density core and a less dense corona. We show that when more Λs than Λ‾s are produced in the corona, and this is combined with a smaller number of Λs coming from the core, as...
