Transverse Momentum, Centrality, and Participant Nucleon Number Dependence of Elliptic Flow

Transverse Momentum, Centrality, and Participant Nucleon Number Dependence of Elliptic Flow

In the combined framework of a multisource and participant-spectator model, we study the elliptic flow as a function of transverse momentum and number of participating nucleons in sNN=200 GeV Au-Au and sNN=2.76 TeV Pb-Pb collisions and argue that the geometry of the initial overlap region in the col...

Zusammenfassung:In the combined framework of a multisource and participant-spectator model, we study the elliptic flow as a function of transverse momentum and number of participating nucleons in sNN=200 GeV Au-Au and sNN=2.76 TeV Pb-Pb collisions and argue that the geometry of the initial overlap region in the collisions determines the experimentally measured azimuthal asymmetries. Our results are approximately in agreement with the data from PHENIX and ALICE collaborations.
