Search for the Chiral Magnetic and Vortical Effects Using Event Shape Approaches in Au+Au Collisions at STAR

The chiral magnetic/vortical effect (CME/CVE) in heavy-ion collisions probe the topological sector of Quantum Chromodynamics, where P and CP symmetries are violated locally in strong interactions. However, the experimental observables for the CME/CVE are dominated by backgrounds related to elliptic flow and nonflow. We employ event shape variables to mitigate the flow background and event planes based on spectators to minimize the nonflow background. We report on the CME search in Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}}$ = 7.7, 14.6, 19.6, 27, and 200 GeV, as well as the CVE search at 19.6 and 27 GeV.
