Abstract：
Anisotropic flow is an important observable in the study of the quark-gluon plasma that is expected to be formed in heavy-ion collisions. With a multiphase transport (AMPT) model we investigate the elliptic ( v ₂), triangular ( v ₃), and quadrangular ( v ₄) flow of charged particles in Pb+Pb collisions at √ s_NN=5.02 TeV. We then compare our flow results with the published ALICE flow results. We find our AMPT simulated results are consistent with ALICE experimental data.
