Angular dihadron correlations as interplay of elliptic and triangular flows
arXiv:1411.4487 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevC.91.064907
Abstract
The hybrid model HYDJET++, which combines soft and hard components, is employed for the analysis of dihadron angular correlations measured in PbPb collisions at center-of-mass energy sqrt(s_NN) = 2.76 TeV. The model allows for study both individual contributions and mutual influence of lower flow harmonics, v_2 and v_3, on higher harmonics and dihadron angular correlations. It is shown that the typical structure called ridge in dihadron angular correlations in a broad pseudorapidity range could appear just as interplay of v_2 and v_3. Central, semi-central and semi-peripheral collisions were investigated. Comparison of model results with the experimental data on dihadron angular correlations is presented for different centralities and transverse momenta p_T.
