Anisotropic flow measurements with ALICE — •Ilya Selyuzhenkov for the ALICE collaboration — Research Division and ExtreMe Matter Institute, GSI Helmholtzzentrum für Schwerionenforschung, Planckstr. 1, 64291 Darmstadt

Anisotropic transverse flow is sensitive to the QCD equation of state which governs the evolution of the medium produced in a heavy-ion collision, as well as, to the transport properties (e.g. viscocity) of matter in a deconfined phase.

Results from the anisotropic flow measurements since the first heavy-ion run at the LHC in 2010 will be reviewed. The anisotropic flow harmonics are measured for charged hadrons and for a wide spectrum of identified particles with the light, strange, and heavy quark content. The measurements are performed for particles produced over a wide range of (pseudo-)rapidity and transverse momentum for various collision centrality classes. The progress stimulated by these measurements in our understanding of the initial conditions and properties of the matter created in nucleus-nucleus and proton-nucleus collisions at relativistic energies will be discussed.
