Elliptic flow and two-particle azimuthal correlations of charged hadrons and high-$p_T$ pions ($p_T>$ 1 GeV/$c$) have been measured close to mid-rapidity in 158A GeV/$c$ Pb+Au collisions by the CERES experiment. Elliptic flow ($v_2$) rises…

The elliptic flow v2 is presented for the Cu+Cu collisions at sqrt{s_NN} = 62.4 and 200 GeV, as a function of pseudorapidity. Comparison to results for the Au+Au collisions at the same energies shows a reduction of about 20% in the flow…

Anisotropic flow is an important observable in the study of the Quark-Gluon Plasma that is expected to be formed in heavy-ion collisions. With a multiphase transport (AMPT) model we investigate the elliptic($\emph{v}_{2}$),…
Recently the ratio of triangular flow to the elliptic flow ($v_3/v_2$) of hadrons was proposed as a probe to detect the pattern of $\alpha$-clustering $^{12}\mathrm{C}$ in $^{12}\mathrm{C}$+$^{197}\mathrm{Au}$ collisions at relativistic…
Within hydrodynamics we study the effects of the initial spatial anisotropy in non-central heavy-ion collisions on the momentum distributions of the emitted hadrons. We show that the elliptic flow measured at midrapidity in 158 A GeV/c…
Suppression of jet spectra or jet quenching in high-energy heavy-ion collisions is caused by jet energy loss in the dense medium. The azimuthal anisotropy of jet energy loss in non-central heavy-ion collisions can lead to jet anisotropy…

The elliptic flow of jet particles at midrapidity ($|\eta|$ < 0.8) is measured for the first time in p--Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}}$ = 5.02 TeV and extended down to lower $\it{p}_{\rm T}$ in Pb--Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}}$…
It is commonly believed that azimuthal anisotropies in relativistic heavy ion collisions are generated by hydrodynamic evolution of the strongly interacting quark-gluon plasma. Here we use transport models to study how azimuthal…
