Abstract

In this note, we present the directed flow v1v_1 measurements of protons from Xe+Cs(I) collisions at 3.8 AGeV (BM@N run8). We show the datasets, event and track selection cuts, centrality definition, event plane reconstruction and resolution. The v1v_1 results are presented as function of transverse momentum (pTp_T) and rapidity (ycmy_{cm}) for 10-30\% central Xe+Cs(I) collisions. The systematic uncertainty study will also be presented and discussed. The v1v_1 measurements are compared with results of JAM transport model calculations and published data from other experiments.
