Description
The polarized transverse-mementum-dependent fragmentation function (TMD FF) $D_{1T}^\perp$ have attracted lots of attention from both experiment and theory communities. Starting from a isospin symmetric parametrization for $D_{1T}^\perp$, we have studied transverse polarizations of $\Lambda$ in various collisions. Recently we focus on nuclear collisions and study the QGP medium effects via QCD evolution in the impact parameter space. We find that transverse polarization of $\Lambda$ can work as a novel probe of nuclear medium effects in heavy ion collisions.
