Effects of hadronic potentials on elliptic flows in relativistic heavy ion collisions

arXiv:1201.3391 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevC.85.041901

Abstract

Within the framework of a multiphase transport (AMPT) model that includes both initial partonic and final hadronic interactions, we show that including mean-field potentials in the hadronic phase leads to a splitting of the elliptic flows of particles and their antiparticles, providing thus a plausible explanation of the different elliptic flows between and , and , and and observed in recent Beam Energy Scan (BES) program at the Relativistic Heavy-Ion Collider (RHIC).
