Energy and system size dependence of elliptic flow: using rapidity gaps to suppress non-flow contribution
Sergei A. Voloshin
Abstract
In this talk I present new STAR results on measurements of integrated elliptic flow at midrapidity in Au+Au and Cu+Cu collisions at sNN=200 and 62 GeV energies. These results have been obtained from azimuthal correlations between particles in the main STAR TPC and two forward TPCs, and are to a large extent free from so-called non-flow correlations. These results along with the previously reported values of ``participant'' eccentricity taking into account eccentricity fluctuations are used for testing the v2/ scaling, which is found to hold relatively well.
