Hadron physics

azimuthal anisotropy of particle emission in off-center nuclear collisions, signalling collective pressure-driven expansion.

In hadron physics, elliptic flow refers to azimuthal anisotropy of particle emission in off-center nuclear collisions, signalling collective pressure-driven expansion. This meaning comes from Ollitrault (1992) in Physical Review D.[1]
