Elliptic flow of multi-strange particles: fragmentation, recombination and hydrodynamics Academic Article

abstract

• We study the elliptic flow v 2 of multi-strange hadrons such as the , and as a function of transverse momentum in the recombination and fragmentation model and compare to a standard hydrodynamic calculation. We find that the measurement of v 2 for the and will allow for the unambiguous distinction between parton recombination and statistical hadro-chemistry to be the dominant process in hadronization at intermediate transverse momenta. 2004 Published by Elsevier B.V.
