Abstract
The anisotropy of the azimuthal distributions of charged particles produced in [√ over s[subscript NN]]=2.76 TeV PbPb collisions is studied with the CMS experiment at the LHC. The elliptic anisotropy parameter, v[subscript 2], defined as the second coefficient in a Fourier expansion of the particle invariant yields, is extracted using the event-plane method, two- and four-particle cumulants, and Lee-Yang zeros. The anisotropy is presented as a function of transverse momentum (p[subscript T]), pseudorapidity (η) over a broad kinematic range, 0.3
