Effectiveness of nonflow suppression using multi-particle correlators
Chong Ye, Wei-Liang Qian, Yue Cui +4
As flow estimators, multi-particle correlators, particularly the higher-order ones, are generally regarded as effective tools for suppressing non-flow contributions. In this work,…

Nonflow suppression in flow analysis with a maximum likelihood estimator
Chong Ye, Wei-Liang Qian, Cesar A. Bernardes +4
We show that the maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) is an effective tool for mitigating non-flow effects in flow analysis. To this end, one constructs two toy models that simulate…

An MLE analysis on the relationship between the initial-state granularity and final-state flow factorization
Shui-Fa Shen, Chong Ye, Dan Wen +5
In this study, we employ the maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) to investigate the relationship between initial-state fluctuations and final-state anisotropies in relativistic heav…
