Predictions for 5.02A TeV Pb$+$Pb Collisions from A Multi-Phase Transport Model

A multi-phase transport (AMPT) model [1] aims to provide a kinetic description of essential stages of high-energy heavy ion collisions. Currently the string melting version of the AMPT model consists of a fluctuating initial condition, parton elastic scatterings, quark coalescence for hadronization, and hadronic interactions. In this talk I will show our predictions for 5.02A TeV Pb$+$Pb collisions at the Large Hadron Collider [2]. While we compare with the already-available centrality dependence data on charged particle dN/d$\eta $ at mid-pseudorapidity in Pb$+$Pb collisions at 5.02 TeV [3], we make predictions [2] on identified particle dN/dy, p$_{\mathrm{T}}$ spectra, anisotropic flows v$_{\mathrm{n}}$, and factorization ratios r$_{\mathrm{n}}(\eta^{\mathrm{a}}$,$\eta ^{\mathrm{b}})$ for longitudinal correlations.
