Description

In this thesis we perform v2 measurements of neutral pion and direct photon discussing the properties of hot and dense medium which are generated by heavy-ion collisions, in √sNN = 200 GeV Au+Au collisions at RHIC, PHENIX. The measured v2 of direct photon is well described with v2 = 0 at pT > 6 GeV/c, indicating that most of direct photons are emitted from initial hard scattering of partons, which should have zero v2.
