Abstract

The di-hadron angular correlation function is computed within boost invariant, ideal hydrodynamics for Au+Au collisions at sNN=200\sqrt{s}_{NN}=200 GeV using Monte Carlo Glauber fluctuating initial conditions. When 0<pT<30<p_T< 3 GeV, the intensity of the flow components and their phases, {vn,Ψn}\left\{v_n, \Psi_n \right \} (n=2,3n=2,3), are found to be correlated on an event by event basis to the initial condition geometrical parameters {ε2,n,Φ2,n}\left\{\varepsilon_{2,n}, \Phi_{2,n} \right \}, respectively. Moreover, the fluctuation of the relative phase between trigger and associated particles, Δn=ΨntΨna\Delta_n =\Psi_n^t - \Psi_n^a, is found to affect the di-hadron angular correlation function when different intervals of transverse momentum are used to define the trigger and the associated hadrons.
