Study of baryon directed flow within a hadronic transport model

Yasushi Nara (Akita International University, Yuwa and FIAS)

We study the beam energy dependence of the directed flow $v_1$ within the hadronic transport model JAM which includes nuclear mean-field, formation of nuclear clusters and its statistical decay. This hadronic approach predicts a positive slope of the proton $v_1$ at 11 and 19.6 GeV which is inconsistent with the STAR data. It is also found that the $\Lambda$ flow by JAM is inconsistent with the data. In order to understand the implications of the data, we include the effects of the softening of the EoS by changing the scattering style. We will discuss possible mechanisms how directed flows are dynamically generated.
