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…
We use a nonlinear response formalism to describe the event plane correlations measured by the ATLAS collaboration. With one exception ($\left\langle \cos(2\Psi_2 - 6\Psi_3 + 4 \Psi_4) \right\rangle$), the event plane correlations are…
Anisotropic flow is sensitive to the shear $(\eta/s)$ and bulk ($\zeta/s$) viscosity of the quark-gluon plasma created in heavy-ion collisions, as well as the initial state of such collisions and hadronization mechanisms. In these…
Elliptic flow, $v_2$, and triangular flow, $v_3$, are to a good approximation linearly proportional to the corresponding spatial anisotropies of the initial density profile, $\varepsilon_2$ and $\varepsilon_3$. Using event-by-event…
