In these proceedings, we present the measurements of global polarization for Λ, ¯Λ with the high-statistics data collected by the STAR experiment for isobar (Ru+Ru, Zr+Zr) collisions at √SNN = 200 GeV and Au+Au collisions at √SNN = 19.6, 27 GeV. These measurements allow us to study possible magnetic field driven effects through the polarization difference between Λ and ¯Λ and system size dependence of global polarization. Furthermore, we present the first measurements of Λ, ¯Λ hyperon local polarization in isobar collisions at √SNN = 200 GeV and Au+Au collisions at √SNN = 19.6, 27 GeV. Comparisons with previous measurements in Au+Au and Pb+Pb collisions at RHIC and LHC provide important insights into the collision system size and energy dependence of the vorticities. The local polarization measurements at lower beam energies can probe the predicted baryonic spin hall effect in a dense baryonic environment in heavy-ion collisions.
