Anisotropic flow in the few collisions regime: application to bottomonia

Nuclear Theory 2019-12-09 v2 High Energy Physics - Phenomenology

Abstract

Considering the kinetic Boltzmann equation in the limit of very few collisions, we study the evolution of the phase space distribution of bottomonia interacting with an expanding gas of massless partons. We investigate the scaling of the anisotropic flow coefficients on the initial eccentricities and the inverse Knudsen number, and compute their transverse momentum dependence.
