abstract

The chiral magnetic effect in a strong magnetic field can be described using the chiral anomaly in the $(1+1)$-dimensional massive Schwinger model with a time-dependent $\theta$-term. We perform a digital quantum simulation of the model at finite $\theta$-angle and vanishing gauge coupling using an IBM-Q digital quantum simulator, and observe the corresponding vector current induced in a system of relativistic fermions by a global {\it chiral quench} -- a sudden change in the chiral chemical potential or $\theta$-angle. At finite fermion mass, there appears an additional contribution to this current that stems from the non-anomalous relaxation of chirality. Our results are relevant for the real-time dynamics of chiral magnetic effect in heavy ion collisions and in chiral materials, as well as for modeling high-energy processes at hadron colliders.

  1. Onset of Bjorken Flow in Quantum Evolution of the Massive Schwinger Model

    hep-ph 2025-09 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    In the 1+1D massive Schwinger model, tensor network simulation of a localized excitation reveals Bjorken-like hydrodynamic flow for small fermion mass, but not for large mass.

  2. Critical behavior of the Schwinger model via gauge-invariant VUMPS

    hep-lat 2024-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    The gauge-invariant VUMPS algorithm determines the continuum critical mass of the Schwinger model as (m/g)c = 0.333556(5) and produces data collapse consistent with Ising critical exponents.

  3. Quantum thermalization of Quark-Gluon Plasma

    hep-ph 2024-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    In a 1+1D Schwinger model, strong-coupling quark Wigner functions thermalize to quantum statistical averages, while weak-coupling scalar and axial components do not because of many-body scars, and the θ-vacuum angle c...
