The Origin of Transverse Flow at the SPS

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-10-31 v1

Abstract

We study the transverse expansion in central Pb+Pb collisions at the CERN SPS. Strong collective motion of hadrons can be created. This flow is mainly due to meson baryon rescattering. It allows to study the angular distribution of intermediate mass meson baryon interactions.
