contents We report the measurements of $Λ$ hyperons' global and local spin polarization from second phase of the RHIC Beam Energy Scan (BES-II) in Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$= 7.7--27 GeV. Global polarization measurements of $\barΛ$ and $Λ$ show no significant differences, offering insights into the late-stage evolution of the magnetic field. The new measurements of the local polarization of $Λ$ perpendicular to the reaction plane ($\langle P_{2,y} \rangle$) shows a monotonic increase with decreasing collision energy, while the component along the beam direction ($\langle P_{2,z} \rangle$) for both $Λ$ and $\barΛ$ is small in magnitude with no strong energy dependence. The net local polarization observable, $\langle P_{2,y}^{net} \rangle =\langle P_{2,y}(Λ) \rangle - \langle P_{2,y}(\barΛ)\rangle$ and $\langle P_{2,z}^{net} \rangle = \langle P_{2,z}(Λ) \rangle - \langle P_{2,z}(\barΛ \rangle)$ designed to probe baryonic spin Hall effect, is consistent with zero with large uncertainty.
