Abstract

Two-particle azimuthal correlation functions are presented for charged hadrons produced in [Formula presented] collisions at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider ([Formula presented]). The measurements permit determination of elliptic flow without event-by-event estimation of the reaction plane. The extracted elliptic flow values ([Formula presented]) show significant sensitivity to both the collision centrality and the transverse momenta of emitted hadrons, suggesting rapid thermalization and relatively strong velocity fields. When scaled by the eccentricity of the collision zone [Formula presented], the scaled elliptic flow shows little or no dependence on centrality for charged hadrons with relatively low [Formula presented]. A breakdown of this [Formula presented] scaling is observed for charged hadrons with [Formula presented].

N2 - Two-particle azimuthal correlation functions are presented for charged hadrons produced in [Formula presented] collisions at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider ([Formula presented]). The measurements permit determination of elliptic flow without event-by-event estimation of the reaction plane. The extracted elliptic flow values ([Formula presented]) show significant sensitivity to both the collision centrality and the transverse momenta of emitted hadrons, suggesting rapid thermalization and relatively strong velocity fields. When scaled by the eccentricity of the collision zone [Formula presented], the scaled elliptic flow shows little or no dependence on centrality for charged hadrons with relatively low [Formula presented]. A breakdown of this [Formula presented] scaling is observed for charged hadrons with [Formula presented].
