In this study, based on the newly updated version of the ultrarelativistic quantum molecular dynamics model, we introduce the kaon-nucleon(KN) potential, including both the scalar and vector(also dubbed Lorentz-like)aspects. We revisit the influence of the KN potential on the collective flow of K+mesons produced in Au+Au collisions at Elab= 1.5 Ge V/nucleon and find that the contribution of the newly included Lorentz-like force is very important, particulary for describing the directed flow of K+. Finally, the corresponding Kao S data of both directed and elliptic flows can be simultaneously reproduced well.展开更多
