Abstract

Azimuthal distributions of η and π0 mesons emitted at midrapidity in collisions of 1.9 AGeV58Ni+58Ni and 2 AGeV40Ca+natCa are studied as a function of the number of projectile-like spectator nucleons. We observed a strong out-of-plane emission of η mesons. In contrast, for π0 mesons, azimuthal anisotropy is observed only in peripheral Ni+Ni collisions.
