Popis: The elliptic, \(v_2\), triangular, \(v_3\), and quadrangular, \(v_4\), azimuthal anisotropic flow coefficients are measured for unidentified charged particles, pions, and (anti-)protons in Pb–Pb collisions at \(\sqrt{s_{NN}}\) = 2.76 TeV with the ALICE detector at the Large Hadron Collider. Results obtained with the event plane and four-particle cumulant methods are reported for the pseudo-rapidity range |\(\eta\)|8 GeV/c. The small \(p_T\) dependence of the difference between elliptic flow results obtained from the event plane and four-particle cumulant methods suggests a common origin of flow fluctuations up to \(p_T\) =8 GeV/c. The magnitude of the (anti-)proton elliptic and triangular flow is larger than that of pions out to at least \(p_T\) =8 GeV/c indicating that the particle type dependence persists out to high \(p_T\), publishedVersion
