Using event-by-event hydrodynamic calculations, we find that the fluctuations of the elliptic flow ($v_2$) in the reaction plane have a negative skew. We compare the skewness of $v_2$ fluctuations to that of initial eccentricity…
Elliptic flow ($v_2$) in ultrarelativistic nucleus-nucleus collisions fluctuates event to event, both in magnitude and in orientation with respect to the reaction plane. Even though the reaction plane is not known event to event in…
The measurement of azimuthal distributions in nucleus-nucleus collisions relies upon the assumption that azimuthal correlations between particles result solely from their correlation with the reaction plane (i.e. flow). We show that at SPS…
