  27. Conclusions • New and elegant approach to old problem: we have generalized the equations of 1+1 hydrodynamics to the case of angular asymmetry using the method of Baym et al. (this is possible for the crossover phase transition, recently suggested by the lattice simulations of QCD, only 2 equations in the extended r-space, automatically fulfilled boundary conditions at r=0) • Velocity field is developed that tends to transform the initial almond shape to a cylindrically symmetric shape. As expected, the magnitude of the flow is greater in the in-plane direction than in the out-of-plane direction. The direction of the flow changes in time and helps the system to restore a cylindrically symmetric shape. • For most peripheral collisions the flow changes the central hot region to a pumpkin-like form – as the system cools down this effect vanishes. • Edge of the system preserves the almond shape but the relative asymmetry is decreasing with time as the system grows. • Presented results may be used to calculate the particle spectra and the v2 parameter when supplemented with the freeze-out model (THERMINATOR).
