Event shape dependence of anisotropic flow for inclusive and identified hadrons in Pb–Pb and Xe–Xe collisions with ALICE
Abstract
Abstract Event Shape Engineering technique has been used to select events corresponding to a specific initial geometry in a given centrality class. For those events, the elliptic (ν2) and triangular (ν3) flow coefficients of inclusive as well as identified particles, including π±, K±, p + p ‾ , K S 0 , Λ + Λ ‾ , and Ξ − + Ξ ‾ + are measured in Pb–Pb collisions at s NN = 5.02 TeV recorded by ALICE. In addition, the ν2 of π±, K±, p + p ‾ , K S 0 , and Λ + Λ ‾ from Xe–Xe collisions at s NN = 5.44 TeV is presented. The results obtained using the scalar product method are reported as a function of transverse momentum, pT, within the pseudorapidity (rapidity) range |η|
