Elliptic flow of deuterons from simulations with hybrid model

Elliptic flow of deuterons is measured on simulated collisions events of Pb+Pb at CMS energy of 2.76 TeV per colliding nucleon pair. We use hybrid model that includes hydrodynamics for the deconfined phase and hadron transport as an afterburner. For deuterons, two production mechanisms are examined: coalescence, and direct thermal production during hadronisation and subsequent transport through the hadronic phase. Differential elliptic flow of deuterons in different centrality bins is evaluated for both implemented production models. In this approach, coalescence describes the experimental data better than direct deuteron production.

Elliptic flow of deuterons in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions

We calculate the elliptic flow of deuterons in Pb+Pb collisions at 2.76 TeV per colliding nucleon-nucleon pair and show that it can be used to discriminate between direct statistical production and coalescence. The emission from the fireball is parametrized and tuned to reproduce transverse momentum spectra and the elliptic flow of protons and pions. Coalescence leads to higher deuteron elliptic flow than statistical production and agrees better with experimental data. We attribute this observation to the varying size of the nucleon-producing region for the emission in different azimuthal angles.
