SYSTEMATIC STUDY OF DIRECTED FLOW AT RHIC ENERGIESAlice C. Mignerey for the PHOBOS Collaboration University of Maryland, College Park, MD 20742, USA Directed flow, v1, of charged hadrons has been measured in Au-Au collisions at RHIC for center-of-mass energies Ö(sNN) = 19.6, 130, 62.4, and 200 GeV using the PHOBOS detector. The large acceptance of PHOBOS for charged particles allows measurements over the full range of pseudorapidity |h| < 5.4. The results for a symmetric subevent method are shown at all four energies. Comparison is made to a mixed harmonic method for the highest energy, and compared to similar results from the STAR collaboration. Close X |
