DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Elizaveta Nazarova (JINR)\nThe polarization of $\\La
 mbda$ hyperons is self-analyzed in their weak decays and represents a sens
 itive tool to explore the dynamics of hadronic reactions and heavy-ion col
 lisions. It was extensively studied in hadronic reactions\, where it is di
 rected along the normal to the scattering plane. In heavy-ion collisions t
 his observable is expected to decrease due to randomization of the scatter
 ing on different nucleons. At the same time\, there exist another observab
 le\, global hyperon polarization\, which is directed along the normal to t
 he reaction plane. It is emerging due to the presence of initial angular m
 omentum in non-central heavy-ion collisions and is growing with decreasing
  energy. The goal of future MPD and BM@N experiments at NICA is to investi
 gate these observables in heavy-ion collisions in the energy range of seve
 ral GeV per nucleon. Here we present the study of $\\Lambda$ ($\\bar\\Lamb
 da$) polarization within the framework of the MPD experiment\, performed v
 ia Monte-Carlo simulation in order to analyze the sensitivity of the detec
 tor to these variables.\n\nhttps://indico.particle.mephi.ru/event/35/contr
