HYDJET++ simulations and reconstruction of the anisotropic flow in Pb+Pb collisions at the LHC
Abstract
The azimuthal anisotropy of charged particles in heavy ion collisions is an important probe of quark-gluon plasma evolution at early stages. In the present paper the elliptic flow pattern in Pb+Pb collisions at sqrts=5.5 TeV is analyzed for different hadron species in the frameworks of HYDJET++ Monte-Carlo model. The influence of resonance decays on particle flow is investigated. The different methods of elliptic flow reconstruction are compared under LHC conditions.
