3+1 dimensional Yang-Mills theory as a local theory of evolution of metrics on 3 manifolds
An explicit canonical transformation is constructed to relate the physical
subspace of Yang-Mills theory to the phase space of the ADM variables of
general relativity. This maps 3+1 dimensional Yang-Mills theory to local
evolution of metrics on 3 manifolds.Comment: 7 pages, revte
Charge dependent azimuthal correlations in Pb--Pb collisions at TeV
Separation of charges along the extreme magnetic field created in non-central
relativistic heavy--ion collisions is predicted to be a signature of local
parity violation in strong interactions. We report on results for charge
dependent two particle azimuthal correlations with respect to the reaction
plane for Pb--Pb collisions at TeV recorded in 2010 with
ALICE at the LHC. The results are compared with measurements at RHIC energies
and against currently available model predictions for LHC. Systematic studies
of possible background effects including comparison with conventional
(parity-even) correlations simulated with Monte Carlo event generators of
heavy--ion collisions are also presented.Comment: Published in the proceedings of "Quark Matter 2011", Annecy-Franc
