Abstract:
Measurements of elliptic ( v 2 ) and triangular ( v 3 ) flow coefficients of π ± , K ± , p+ $$ \overline{\mathrm{p}} $$ p ¯ , $$ {\mathrm{K}}_{\mathrm{S}}^0 $$ K S 0 , and Λ+ $$ \overline{\Lambda} $$ Λ ¯ obtained with the scalar product method in Xe-Xe collisions at $$ \sqrt{s_{\mathrm{NN}}} $$ s NN = 5 . 44 TeV are presented. The results are obtained in the rapidity range | y | 〈 0 . 5 and reported as a function of transverse momentum, p T , for several collision centrality classes. The flow coefficients exhibit a particle mass dependence for p T 〈 3 GeV/ c , while a grouping according to particle type (i.e., meson and baryon) is found at intermediate transverse momenta (3 〈 p T 〈 8 GeV/ c ). The magnitude of the baryon v 2 is larger than that of mesons up to p T = 6 GeV/ c . The centrality dependence of the shape evolution of the p T -differential v 2 is studied for the various hadron species. The v 2 coefficients of π ± , K ± , and p+ $$ \overline{\mathrm{p}} $$ p ¯ are reproduced by MUSIC hydrodynamic calculations coupled to a hadronic cascade model (UrQMD) for p T 〈 1 GeV/ c . A comparison with v n measurements in the corresponding centrality intervals in Pb-Pb collisions at $$ \sqrt{s_{\mathrm{NN}}} $$ s NN = 5 . 02 TeV yields an enhanced v 2 in central collisions and diminished value in semicentral collisions.
