NeXSPheRIO results on azimuthal anisotropy in Au-Au collisions at 200A GeV

Abstract

In this work, we present the results obtained by the hydrodynamic code NeXSPheRIO on anisotropic flows. In our calculation, we made use of event-by-event fluctuating initial conditions, and chemical freeze-out was explicitly implemented. We studied directed flow, elliptic flow and forth harmonic coefficient for various hadrons at different centrality windows for Au+Au collisions at 200 AGeV. The results are discussed and compared with experimental data from RHIC.Comment: 6 pages and 6 figures, sqm2008 contributio
