报告摘要:Non-central heavy-ion collisions can generate an ultra-strong magnetic field, on the order of 1018 Gauss, the evolution of which in the quark gluon plasma (QGP) remains open question. Direct evidence of the electromagnetic field in the QGP is elusive because the magnetic field drops rapidly with time in the vacuum until the QGP is formed. Since the collective motion of oppositely charged quarks can be affected by the electromagnetic force, it was proposed that the directed flow of charged particles could serve as the probe to detect the evolution of the electromagnetic field in the QGP. In this report, I will present recent experimental measurements of the charge-dependent directed flow in heavy-ion collisions. The results in peripheral collisions reveal the impacts of the electromagnetic field on the QGP for the first time in such experiments.
