> Abstract:
>
> We present the directed flow ($v_1$) measured in Au+Au collisions at
> $\sqrt{s_{_{NN}}} = 62$\,GeV in the mid-pseudorapidity region
> $|\eta|<1.3$ and in the forward pseudorapidity region
> $2.5 < |\eta| < 4.0$.  The results are obtained using
> the three-particle cumulant method, the event plane method with
> mixed harmonics, and for the first time at the Relativistic Heavy Ion
> Collider (RHIC), the standard method with the
> event plane reconstructed from spectator neutrons.
> Results from all three methods are in good agreement.
> Over the pseudorapidity range studied,
> charged particle directed flow is in the direction
> opposite to that of fragmentation neutrons,
> with the flow magnitude increasing
> monotonically with pseudorapidity at all centralities.
