Anisotropy fluctuation and correlation in central $\alpha$-clustered ${}^{12}$C+${}^{197}$Au collisions

Abstract

In the framework of a multi-phase transport model, fluctuation and correlation of the azimuthal anisotropies in ${}^{12}$C+${}^{197}$Au collisions at $\sqrt{S_{NN}}$ = 200 GeV are explored. Properties of the initial eccentricity and final harmonic flow fluctuation resulted from ${}^{12}$C+${}^{197}$Au collisions with Woods-Saxon configuration and triangular $\alpha$-clustering configurations of ${}^{12}$C are investigated via scaled variance, skewness and kurtosis. Comparisons are made between results from $\alpha$-clustered configurations and Woods-Saxon configuration. The triangular flow fluctuation is found to have particular sensitivity in distinguishing triangular $\alpha$-clustering structure of ${}^{12}$C. Furthermore, correlations between initial eccentricities and final flow harmonics are studied with strong multiplicity dependence observed for the correlation functions.
