Heavy-ion collisions at LHC energies create a hot and dense medium of deconned quarks
and gluons, known as the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) [56]. The QGP reball rst expands,
cools and then freezes out into a collection of nal-state hadrons. Correlations between the
free particles carry information about the space-time extent of the emitting source, and are
imprinted on the nal-state spectra due to a quantum-mechanical interference eect [18].
The correlation of two identical particles at small relative momentum, commonly known as
intensity, or Hanbury Brown-Twiss (HBT), interferometry, is an eective tool to study the
space-time structure of the emitting source …

Quantum Chromodynamics, which describe the interactions of quarks and gluons, have been found not to violate global parity symmetry. However, the possibility
of local parity violations due to transitions in the vacuum state of QCD is not excluded. The effects of these parity violations could be measured in the
hot and dense medium created in the ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions experiment conducted at the Large Hadron Collider, called a Quark-Gluon Plasma, in which
the quarks that compose most of ordinary matter are deconfined. In the strong magnetic fields which permeate the QGP in non-central collisions, parity violation
would express itself …
