How much does the hadronic phase contribute to the observed anisotropic flow at the LHC?

Elliptic flow signals the presence of multiple interactions between the constituents of the created matter in heavy-ion collisions. This includes possible contributions from the different phases, including the hadronic phase. In these proceedings I will first show that the energy dependence of ellip...
