Descripción
When we smash large ions together at nearly the speed of
light, we create the most perfect fluid in the universe - the
quark-gluon plasma. Its strong collective behavior, well described by
relativistic hydrodynamics, has been also observed in smaller
collision systems, puzzling the whole particle physics community. In
this talk I will present a new mechanism generating preferred
orientations for energetic particles based on two basic ingredients:
geometry and quantum mechanics. I will show why the interplay between
the in-medium acquired phase between different paths and the shape of
the medium boundary can provide a resolution to the puzzle, as well as
outline the path forward towards realistic predictions.
