The arguments for the possibility of violation of P and CP symmetries of strong interactions at finite temperature are presented. A new way of observing these effects in heavy ion collisions is proposed -- it is shown that parity violation should manifest itself in the asymmetry between positive and negative pions with respect to the reaction plane. Basing on topological considerations, we derive a {\it lower} bound on the magnitude of the expected asymmetry, which may appear within the reach of the current and/or future heavy ion experiments.

  1. A higher-harmonic observable for the chiral magnetic effect in heavy-ion collisions

    nucl-th 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    The hexadecapole component of Δγ(φ_pair) is proposed as a CME-sensitive and background-insensitive observable based on magnetic field fluctuations in heavy-ion collision models.

  2. Quark and gluon production in the presence of the time-varying chiral magnetic current

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    Time variation of the chiral magnetic conductivity in quark-gluon plasma modifies chiral Cherenkov radiation rates and produces strong jet polarization.

  3. Scattering Amplitudes and Resonant Processes in QED with Chiral Chemical Potential and Chiral Magnetic Conductivity

    hep-ph 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    QED scattering amplitudes in a chiral medium with constant μ5 and b0 exhibit resonant behavior in multiple processes, with computed rates for 1→2 processes determining widths of fermion and photon states.

  4. Quark orbital angular momentum as a chiral magnetic effect

    hep-ph 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    The calculation yields a large negative orbital angular momentum L_{u-d} from chiral magnetic effects that partially cancels the positive spin contribution and reduces total J_{u-d} to match lattice QCD.

  5. Nuclear Physics Confronts Relativistic Collisions Of Isobars

    nucl-ex 2025-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    RHIC isobar data are explained by different shapes of 96Ru and 96Zr, with 96Zr showing a large octupole deformation, so nuclear structure uncertainty, not the magnetic field, dominates the observed ratios.

  6. Experimental Search for the Chiral Magnetic Effect in Relativistic Heavy-Ion Collisions: A Perspective

    nucl-ex 2025-02 conditional novelty 3.0 of 10

    The chiral magnetic effect in heavy-ion collisions remains unconfirmed, with current data giving a 2.9-sigma hint in Au+Au and an upper limit near 10% in isobar collisions.
