Magnetic field in heavy-ion collisions
ORAL
Abstract
The key ingredient for predictions of the Chiral Magnetic Effect is a high magnetic field. I will discuss the properties of a magnetic field in heavy-ion collisions, especially, its lifetime and influence of finite electric and chiral conductivities. I will present numerical results for realistic values of the parameters. I will shortly discuss how the magnetic field manifests itself in photon production.
