Analysis of directed flow from three-particle correlations

Abstract
We present a new method for analysing directed flow, based on a three-particle azimuthal correlation. It is less biased by nonflow correlations than two-particle methods, and requires less statistics than four-particle methods. It is illustrated on NA49 data.
