Nature article on Lambda polarization and vorticity

Here I just collect some links to news articles about STAR's Nature paper on Lambda polarization.  Many of them directly quote each other.

Pre-embargo article in Science News about STAR's result.  They found the article on the arxiv.  Nobody from STAR spoke to them (despite them contacting us), so we did not violate the embargo: www.sciencenews.org/article/smashing-gold-ions-creates-most-swirly-fluid-ever




The following two were articles about Xin-Nian Wang's paper:
