Parton Collectivity from RHIC to the LHC

preprint2009arXivOpen access

Abstract

Anisotropic flow is recognized as one of the main observables providing information on the early dynamics in heavy-ion collisions. The large elliptic flow observed at RHIC is considered to be evidence for almost perfect liquid behavior of the strongly coupled Quark Gluon Plasma produced in the collisions. In this report we review our current understanding of this new state of matter and investigate the predictions for anisotropic flow at the LHC.
