The First Moment of Azimuthal Anisotropy in Nuclear Collisions from AGS to LHC Energies

Figure 9

(a) for protons in 2, 4, 6, and 8 GeV Au+Au collisions measured by E895 [34]. (b) Beam energy dependence of the slope (here using unnormalized rapidity) for protons, replotted using the more ubiquitous beam energy scale [34]. A point from the same detector at the Bevalac [71] and another from E877 at the top AGS energy [31] are also plotted.
