Anisotropy flows in Pb-Pb collisions at LHC energies from parton scatterings with heavy quark trigger

摘要

By implementing an additional heavy quark-antiquark pair production trigger in a multiphase transport(AMPT)model,we study the effect on anisotropy flows of identified particles with a focus on charged particles and quarkonium(J/ΨandΥ).A systematic increase in the collision rate for active partons in the AMPT model with such an implementation has been observed.It leads to a slight increase of identified particles anisotropy flows as a function of transverse momentum(pT)and rapidity,and gives a better description of the experimental data of elliptic flow toward larger pT.Our approach provides an efficient way to study the heavy quark dynamics in the AMPT model at LHC energies.
