Measurement of the v₂ of π⁰ mesons produced in √S_NN 2.76 TeV PbPb collisions at the Large Hadron Collider

We have performed the first measurement of the azimuthal anisotropy of neutral pions in relativistic heavy ion collisions in the CMS detector at the LHC. The data presented are from PbPb collisions at a center of mass energy per nucleon √S_NN = 2.76 TeV, in the range 20-80% centrality and from 1.6 -...
