Can induced Theta vacua be created in heavy-ion collisions?

We discuss a phenomenon important to the development of the early Universe which may be experimentally testable in heavy-ion collisions. An arbitrary induced theta vacuum state should be created in heavy-ion collisions, simil ar to the creation of the disoriented chiral condensate. It should be a lar ge domain with a wrong theta(ind) not equal 0 orientation which will mimic the physics of the early Universe when it is believed that the fundamental parameter theta(fund) not equal 0. We test this idea numerically in a simpl e model where we study the evolution of the phases of the chiral condensate s in QCD with two quark flavors with nonzero theta(ind) parameter. We see t he formation of a nonzero theta(ind) vacuum on a time scale of 10(-23) s.
