Published online: 1 March 2023
Experimental searches for definitive evidence of the Chiral Magnetic Effect in heavy-ion collisions have become increasingly ingenious over the past decade, but a clear separation of any CME signal from flow-related backgrounds remains elusive. Although the isobar analysis by STAR does not appear to show a signal given the current preliminary background estimate, there is a tantalizing statistically significant signal in Au-Au at top RHIC energy using a spectator plane versus participant plane analysis. I discuss the status of these works in some detail, and discuss the possible advantage of an analysis that takes advantage of the expected correlation between the parity-odd event-by-event CME signal and other parity-odd measures such as the net hyperon helicity.
