Spectra and elliptic flow of (multi-)strange hadrons at RHIC and LHC within viscous hydrodynamics+hadron cascade hybrid model

Abstract: Using the (2+1)-dimensional ultrarelativistic viscous hydrodynamics+hadron cascade, VISHNU, hybrid model, we study the $p_{\rm T}$-spectra and elliptic flow of $\Lambda$, $\Xi$, and $\Omega$ in Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$=200 GeV and in Pb+Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$=2.76 TeV. Comparing our model results with the data measurements, we find that the VISHNU model gives general descriptions of the measurements of these strange and multi-strange hadrons at several centrality classes at RHIC and LHC. Mass ordering of elliptic flow $v_{2}$ among $\pi$, $K$, $p$, $\Lambda$, $\Xi$, and $\Omega$ are further investigated and discussed at the two collision systems. We find, at both RHIC and LHC, the $v_{2}$ mass ordering among $\pi$, $K$, $p$, and $\Omega$ are fairly reproduced within the VISHNU hybrid model, and more improvements are needed to implement for well describing the $v_{2}$ mass ordering among $p$, $\Lambda$, and $\Xi$.
