Presently flow and nonflow cannot be separated experimentally. Using Pythia simulations of p+p collisions we show that nonflow approximately factorizes. This fact may be used to disentangle flow and nonflow in heavy ion data by performing a…

Fluctuations in nucleon positions can affect the spatial eccentricity of the overlap zone in nucleus-nucleus collisions. We show that elliptic flow should be scaled by different eccentricities depending on which method is used for the flow…
