AI Article Synopsis
- The study reports the first observation of the elliptic flow (v2) of J/ψ particles in heavy-ion collisions at the LHC, using data from the ALICE detector in Pb-Pb collisions.
- The measurement was taken at a collision energy of √(s(NN))=2.76 TeV, specifically looking at conditions between rapidity regions 2.5 to 4.0 and transverse momentum ranging from 0 to 10 GeV/c.
- The results indicate a nonzero elliptic flow (v2=0.116±0.046(stat)±0.029(syst)) for J/ψ particles in semicentral collisions, suggesting that a substantial amount of J/ψ is produced from charm
Article Abstract
We report on the first measurement of inclusive J/ψ elliptic flow v2 in heavy-ion collisions at the LHC. The measurement is performed with the ALICE detector in Pb-Pb collisions at √(s(NN))=2.76 TeV in the rapidity range 2.5
