Abstract

Anisotropic flow is an important observable in the study of the Quark-Gluon Plasma that is expected to be formed in heavy-ion collisions. With a multiphase transport (AMPT) model we investigate the elliptic(v2\emph{v}_{2}), triangular(v3\emph{v}_{3}), and quadrangular(v4\emph{v}_{4}) flow of charged particles in Pb+Pb collisions at sNN\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}} = 5.02 TeV. Then We compare our flow results with the published ALICE flow results. We found our AMPT simulated results are consistent with ALICE experimental data.
