Analysis of directed flow from three-particle correlations
N. Borghini, P. M. Dinh, J. -Y. Ollitrault
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 requi…
Analysis of directed flow from elliptic flow
N. Borghini, P. M. Dinh, J. -Y. Ollitrault
The directed flow of particles produced in ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions at SPS and RHIC is so small that currently available methods of analysis are at the border of appl…
Effects of momentum conservation on the analysis of anisotropic flow
N. Borghini, P. M. Dinh, J. -Y. Ollitrault +2
We present a general method for taking into account correlations due to momentum conservation in the analysis of anisotropic flow, either by using the two-particle correlation meth…
Flow analysis from multiparticle azimuthal correlations
Nicolas Borghini, Phuong Mai Dinh, Jean-Yves Ollitrault
We present a new method for analyzing directed and elliptic flow in heavy ion collisions. Unlike standard methods, it separates the contribution of flow to azimuthal correlations f…
J/Psi suppression in central Pb-Pb collisions
Jean-Paul Blaizot, Phuong Mai Dinh, Jean-Yves Ollitrault
We discuss the recent NA50 J/Psi production data in Pb--Pb collisions, in particular the second drop at high transverse energies which correspond to the most central collisions. Us…
Collective flow and multiparticle azimuthal correlations
Nicolas Borghini, Phuong Mai Dinh, Jean-Yves Ollitrault
The measurement of azimuthal distributions in nucleus-nucleus collisions relies upon the assumption that azimuthal correlations between particles result solely from their correlati…
