Description
We study vorticity and hydrodynamic helicity in semi-peripheral heavy-ion collisions
using the kinetic model of Quark-Gluon Strings. The angular momentum, which is a
source of P-odd observables, is preserved with a good accuracy. We observe formation
of the specific toroidal structures of the vorticity field. Their existence, accompanied by
the strange chemical potential, is mirrored in the polarization of hyperons of the percent
order.
