Description
This presentation explores heavy ion collisions and their role in understanding quark gluon plasma (QGP). The experiments conducted at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) allow for the study of the properties and dynamics of QGP and the processes of quantum chromodynamics (QCD). These collisions provide insight into one of the simplest forms of complex quantum matter. This presentation focuses on the collective phenomena in non-central nuclear collisions, studying the azimuthal anisotropy resulting from these events. Studying anisotropic collective flow, specifically elliptic flow, reflected in the momentum distribution of the resulting particles, serves as a key probe for understanding the QGP created in heavy ion collisions.
