Elliptic flow in U+U collisions at √sNN=200 GeV and in Pb+Pb collisions at √sNN=2.76 TeV: Prediction from a hybrid approach

We predict the elliptic flow parameter v(2) in U+U collisions at root s(NN) = 200 GeV and in Pb+Pb collisions at root s(NN) = 2.76 TeV using a hybrid model in which the evolution of the quark gluon plasma is described by ideal hydrodynamics with a state-of-the-art lattice QCD equation of state and the subsequent hadronic stage is described by a hadron cascade model.
