【 摘 要 】

We present a generalization of the blast-wave model by incorporating viscous effects in the fluid velocity profile as well as in the Cooper-Frye freeze-out. We apply this model to study the identified particles spectra and anisotropic flow at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). We show that this improved viscous blast-wave model leads to good description of the transverse momentum distribution of particle multiplicities and elliptic as well as triangular flow. Within this model, we estimate the shear viscosity to entropy density ratio η/s0.24 at the LHC.
