Description
We consider a few theoretical issues related to the physics of heavy-ion collisions.
The emphasis is on predictions for microscopic variables, especially spin variables, and their dependence on the overall rotation and/or acceleration of the quark-gluon medium. In case of the rotation, as a manifestation of the low viscocity the central role is played by vortices. In case of the acceleration, we concentrate on the instability of the medium due to the Unruh effect.
