18 @ INT/RHIC workshop12/15/200218Jiangyong Jia Centrality dependence of v2 l NB: in these models,v2 are purely geometrical origin, does not consider detailed modification of momentum distribution l Geometrical anisotropy is insufficient to produce observed v2 by jet absorption l V2 is sensitive to absorption model, smallest for longitudinal expanding source l V2 will increase using hard sphere or cylindrical nuclear profile, but unphysical

19 @ INT/RHIC workshop12/15/200219Jiangyong Jia Varying  l Maximum v2 produce by surface. l Different geometrical profile have different geometrical limit. l v2 is below geometrical limit at experimental observed suppression value Suppression factor for 0-5% centrality  V2 for 50-55% centrality Away side jet for 0-5% centrality hard sphere profile For sphere, surface volume is cylindrical profile S.
