Description
Jets produced in association with a ${Z^0}$ or ${W^\pm}$ boson in hadronic collisions are naturally polarized due to the parity violation of weak interaction, making these processes ideal for extracting information about the longitudinal spin transfer $G_{1L}$, and for studying the phenomenon of polarized jet quenching. In this work, we compute the polarization of $\Lambda$ hyperons in $pp$ collisions and investigate the nuclear modification due to the jet-medium interaction in $AA$ collisions. We demonstrate that this quantity is a sensitive probe to the energy loss effect.
