Conclusions

• Scaled V2 depends only on the initial energy density rather than being dependent on the particle density times path length, which would be the expectation if only partial thermalization was attained.

• The observed increase of the elliptic flow with increasing particle density is qualitatively similar to the prediction of resent hydrodinamical model study by Teaney, Lauret and Shuryak with an equation of state which includes a transition to a QGP at a critical temperature of 165 MeV and a latent heat of 800 MeV.
