Summary I
• continuing to push the envelope…
• directed and elliptic flow excitation function
• continue input to bulk parameterization
• strange particle flow
• positive L flow
• does not scale with proton flow (naïve 2/3 rule broken)
• L potential important to describe flow
• strong antiflow of K0’s
• strong, repulsive vector potential indicated
• Varying geometry (impact parameter): another handle
• increased x asymmetry  larger p asymmetry
E895
Mike Lisa, Quark Matter 2001
26
Summary II
• azimuthally-sensitive p- HBT
• almond-shaped source, (~ entrance-channel geometry)
• large positive spatial tilt angles
• non-hydro nature of p flow
• coordinate-space structure of proton flow
• 6-D p phasespace density
• non-universal growth of <f> with energy
• saturation to “universal” behaviour at 8 AGeV
• after 8 AGeV, increased p yield pushed to high pT flow
• first p-L signal observed
• significant positive correlation
• inconsistent with shape expected by Urbana potential
