We calculate the contribution to the elliptic flow observable v 2 from two-particle correlations in minijet production in ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions. We use a minijet production cross section derived in a model inspired by saturation approach to high energy scattering. Resulting differential elliptic flow v 2 (p T ) is an increasing function of p T for transverse momenta below the saturation scale Q s . At higher transverse momenta (p T > Q s ) differential flow stops growing and becomes approximately constant, reproducing the elliptic flow saturation data reported by STAR. The centrality dependence of the minijet contribution to v 2 is also in good agreement with the data.
