A number of recent progresses in the study of strong field effects in heavy ion collisions are discussed here: 1) the Chiral Magnetic Wave (CMW) and its experimental manifestation via splitting of positive/negative pions' elliptic flow; 2) the event-by-event azimuthal fluctuations of strong EM fields and its correlations with matter geometry; 3) a new mechanism for generating axial current in external electric field, the Chiral Electric Separation Effect (CESE).
