Many
faces of chiral magnetic effects
Igor Shovkovy (Arizona State
University)
Chiral
relativistic plasmas play an important role in many high-energy systems,
as well as in a number of condensed matter systems with
pseudo-relativistic quasiparticles. Interestingly, the quantum anomalies
of the theory and the chirality of constituent particles may profoundly
affect certain physical properties of the corresponding plasmas. By now,
a large number of interesting phenomena were proposed and investigated.
In many cases, however, systematic generalizations of underlying
phenomena are not obvious when the systems have finite sizes. In this
talk, I will first give a review of chiral relativistic plasmas and
discuss their applications to various physical systems, and then discuss
the recent progress in studying fine-size systems.
