Abstract
We generalize the Gubser solution of viscous hydrodynamics by including the finite density effect and analytically compute the flow harmonics . We explicitly show how and their viscous corrections depend on the chemical potential. The difference in between particles and antiparticles is also analytically computed and shown to be proportional to various chemical potentials and the viscosity. Excellent agreement is obtained between the results and the available experimental data from the SPS, RHIC and the LHC.
