Abstract
Directed flow of antiprotons is studied in Au + An collisions at a beam mom entum of 11.5A GeV/c. It is shown that antiproton directed flow is anti-cor related to proton flow. The measured transverse momentum dependence of the antiproton flow is compared with predictions of the RQMD event generator. ( C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
