Anisotropic flow of charged and identified particles in Pb–Pb collisions at √ s NN = 5.02 TeV with ALICE

Anisotropic flow, i.e. azimuthal anisotropies in particle production, is a key observable to characterise the properties of the Quark–Gluon Plasma (QGP), as it is sensitive to both its transport coefficients and equation of state. In this contribution, the first measurements of anisotropic flow of c...

Sumario:Anisotropic flow, i.e. azimuthal anisotropies in particle production, is a key observable to characterise the properties of the Quark–Gluon Plasma (QGP), as it is sensitive to both its transport coefficients and equation of state. In this contribution, the first measurements of anisotropic flow of charged and identified particles in Pb–Pb collisions at √ sNN = 5.02 TeV with ALICE are reported, in a broad range of particle transverse momenta and in the pseudorapidity range |η| < 0.8. The results can provide further constraints to the current models of heavy-ion collisions.
