K+'s Collective Flow in Heavy-ion Collisions predicted by Covariant Kaon Dynamics

The directed and elliptic flows of positively charged Kaon produced in $^{58}_{28}$Ni + $^{58}_{28}$Ni reaction at incident kinetic energy 1.91 AGeV, experimental data are released newly by V. Zinyuk,et.al. in Ref.[arXiv: 1403.1504v2 [nucl-ex] 8 Apr 2014], are reproduced by using the covariant kaon dynamics. Our numerical results indicate qualitatively the Lorentz force is necessary to explained reasonably the data as soon as the space-like part of kaon's vector potential is involved. The sensitivity of $K^+$ directed as well as differential directed flow on the Lorentz force are also observed near target rapidity.
