Boost-invariant description of polarization within hydrodynamics with spin
We briefly review a recently proposed formalism of perfect-fluid hydrodynamics with spin, which is a generalization of the standard hydrodynamic framework and provides a natural tool for describing the evolution of spin-polarized systems of particles with spin 1/2. It is based on the de Groot - van Leeuwen - van Weert forms of energy-momentum and spin tensors and conservation laws. Using Bjorken symmetry we show how this formalism may be used to determine observables describing the polarization of particles measured in the experiment.
