Thermalization and elliptic flow at RHIC

Published 2001 in arXiv: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology

ABSTRACT

We discuss signatures of thermalisation in heavy ion collisions based on elliptic flow. We then propose a new method to analyse elliptic flow, based on multiparticle azimuthal correlations. This method allows one to test quantitatively the collective behaviour of the interacting system.
