“…The charged-particle directed flow in Pb-Pb collisions at √ s NN = 2.76 TeV is about three times smaller [20] than at the top RHIC energy of 200 GeV. This suggest that the global polarization at the Large Haron Collider (LHC) energies should be also about three times smaller than at RHIC (around ∼0.08%) and decreasing from √ s NN = 2.76 to 5.02 TeV by about ∼30% [21]. Even smaller polarization values at the LHC are expected when the directed flow is seen as a combination of the two effects: the tilt of the source in the longitudinal direction and the dipole flow originating from the asymmetry in the initial energy density distributions [22].…”

“…The directed flow for prompt D 0 and D 0 mesons, and their difference, is shown in Fig. 4 slope as a function of pseudorapidity η, which is larger than zero with a significance of 2.7σ and about three orders of magnitude larger than the measured slope for charged hadrons [16]. These…”

“…Transport models including both fragmentation and recombination fairly describe the v 2 and v 3 of D mesons, suggesting a range for the charm thermalisation time between 3 and 14 fm/c [12]. The first harmonic coefficient (v 1 ), called directed flow, is measured for prompt D 0 and D 0 mesons by the ALICE Collaboration as well [16]. The directed flow of charmed hadrons is suggested as a powerful probe to study the strong electromagnetic fields produced in heavy-ion collisions due to the early production time of charm quarks and the charm thermalisation time, which is similar to the QGP lifetime.…”

“…In the center of the created QGP, the ""⃗ field reaches an extreme magnitude, on the order of 10 )% Tesla or more, which is the strongest magnetic field known in today's Universe. New effects arising from such extreme magnetic field have been explored both experimentally and theoretically [43][44][45][46][47][48]. Panel a is adapted with permission from Ref.…”
