Abstract
We calculate, for the first time, triangular flow in high energy nuclear collisions. The charmonium motion in medium is controlled by a transport equation with loss and gain terms, and the evolution of the hot medium is governed by a single-shot hydrodynamic equation with a triangularly deformed initial condition. In comparison with the elliptic flow , the triangular flow comes almost completely from the charmonium regeneration in the quark gluon plasma and therefore is more sensitive to the medium properties.
