Many novel quantum phenomena emerge in non-equilibrium relativistic quantum matter under extreme conditions such as strong magnetic fields and rotations. The quantum kinetic theory based on Wigner functions in quantum field theory provides a powerful and effective microscopic description of these quantum phenomena. In this article we review some of recent advances in the quantum kinetic theory and its applications in describing these quantum phenomena.

  1. Local Spin Polarization in Anisotropic Gubser Flow: Suppression Mechanism and Formulation Dependence

    nucl-th 2026-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    In an anisotropic Gubser flow, the longitudinal spin polarization's sign depends on which shear formulation is used, and two popular formulations show exact or near-exact cancellation between vorticity and shear contr...

  2. Is the shear induced spin polarization non-dissipative?

    hep-ph 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Shear-induced spin polarization leaves the momentum-integrated entropy production rate unchanged in chiral kinetic theory, but Zubarev's linear response suggests a dissipative origin.

  3. Spin alignment of vector mesons in local equilibrium by Zubarev's approach

    hep-ph 2024-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    The spin alignment rho00-1/3 vanishes at first order in gradients in local equilibrium, with nonzero contributions first appearing at second order, in a pseudo-gauge dependent way.

  4. Transverse and longitudinal spin alignment from color fields in heavy ion collisions

    nucl-th 2024-11 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Spin alignment of phi mesons along the beam direction is predicted to exceed 1/3 for glasma fields and to show a sign-changing rapidity pattern for isotropic QGP color fields, offering a discriminating observable.

  5. Schwinger-Keldysh effective action for hydrodynamics with approximate symmetries

    hep-th 2024-11 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    The axial charge relaxation coefficient in the Schwinger-Keldysh effective theory of QCD must be of second order in the quark mass, Γ_A = γ_A m_q^2, subleading in the broken phase and leading in the restored phase.

  6. Local spin polarization of $\Lambda$ hyperons and its interaction corrections

    nucl-th 2025-08 conditional novelty 2.0 of 10

    The CLVisc hydrodynamic model reproduces the second sine Fourier coefficient of Lambda longitudinal polarization in Au+Au collisions but fails in p+Pb collisions; the paper also surveys quantum kinetic theory and spin...

  7. An introduction to relativistic spin hydrodynamics

    nucl-th 2024-11 accept novelty 1.0 of 10

    A review that derives the constitutive equations of relativistic spin hydrodynamics from thermodynamics and surveys challenges like pseudo-gauge ambiguity and spin freeze-out.
