Description
Heavy-ion collisions can generate extremely hot/dense medium and extremely strong electromagnetic fields. We discuss some general properties of these fields, including the centrality dependence, collision energy dependence, azimuthal correlations to the matter geometry, etc. Once there appear parity-odd domains in the quark-gluon plasma, the electromagnetic field can induce anomalous tranports. We focus on one newly found anomalous transport, namely, the chiral electric separation effect and its implications in heay-ion collisions. Finally, we discuss the possibility of realizing the anomalous transports in cold atoms.
