We study the formation of the directed flow of hadrons in nuclear collisionsat energies between AGS and SPS in Monte Carlo cascade model. The slope of theproton flow at midrapidity tends to zero (softening) with increasing impactparameter of the collision. For very peripheral topologies this slope becomesnegative (antiflow). The effect is caused by rescattering of hadrons inremnants of the colliding nuclei. Since the softening of the proton flow can bemisinterpreted as indication of the presence of quark-gluon plasma, we proposeseveral measurements at NICA facility which can help one to distinguish betweenthe cases with and without the plasma formation.

Directed flow in heavy-ion collisions at NICA: what is interesting to measure?
