Anisotropic flow of Pb+Pb s_(NN)~(1/2)= 5.02 TeV from a multi-phase transport model

Anisotropic flow is an important observable in the study of the quark-gluon plasma that is expected to be formed in heavy-ion collisions. With a multiphase transport(AMPT) model we investigate the elliptic(v_2),triangular(v_3), and quadrangular(v_4) flow of charged particles in Pb+Pb collisions at s_(NN)~(1/2)= 5.02 TeV. We then compare our flow results with the published ALICE flow results. We find our AMPT simulated results are consistent with ALICE experimental data.
