Description
The quantized vortices in superfluid confined phase may transform the large orbital momentum generated in heavy-ion collisions to the spin of baryons in the vortex core. The effect emerges only at some threshold angular velocity providing the qualitative explanation for the recent low energy data. The formation of vortex rings is considered as a mechanism of relation between local and global baryon polarization. Similarity and difference with vortices in liquid helium and interplay between condensed matter and high energy physics are discussed.
