Abstract

We present elliptic flow (v2v_2) of identified hadrons at mid-rapidity (y<1.0|y| < 1.0) in Au+Au collisions at Elab=35 A GeVE_{lab} = 35\mathrm{~A~GeV} using the Parton Hadron String Dynamics (PHSD) model. Transverse momentum (pTp_\mathrm{T}) dependence of identified hadron v2v_2 in minimum bias (0-80%) and three different centrality intervals (0-10%, 10-40%, and 40-80%) are presented. A clear centrality dependence of v2(pT)v_2(p_\mathrm{T}) is observed for particles and anti-particles in Au+Au collisions at Elab=35 A GeVE_{lab} = 35\mathrm{~A~GeV}. We also present pTp_\mathrm{T} dependence of v2v_2 difference (Δv2\mathrm{\Delta} v_2) between particles and corresponding antiparticles. A significant difference in v2v_2 values for baryons and anti-baryons is observed. The number of constituent quark (NCQ) scaling of v2v_2 is discussed in Au+Au collisions at Elab=35 A GeVE_{lab} = 35\mathrm{~A~GeV}. We also present ratio of v2(pT)v_2(p_\mathrm{T}) between the HSD and PHSD modes to explore the effect of hadronic and partonic interactions in the medium. We observe higher v2v_2 in PHSD mode than the HSD mode, which suggests the formation of partonic medium in Au+Au collisions at Elab=35 A GeVE_{lab} = 35\mathrm{~A~GeV}. These predictions are useful for the interpretation of data measured in Beam Energy Scan (BES) program at RHIC and will be useful for the future Compressed Baryonic Matter (CBM) experiment at the Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR).
