Anisotropy: a new signature of transverse collective flow?

Abstract:
We propose a method for identifying hydrodynamical flow of the matter produced in the central rapidity region of ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions. Quantitative predictions are made on the basis of a hydrodynamical model. We estimate statistical fluctuations and conclude that collective behaviour, if any, should be seen unambiguously in Au or Pb collisions.
