Effect of flow fluctuations and nonflow on elliptic flow methods
Jean-Yves Ollitrault, Arthur M. Poskanzer, Sergei A. Voloshin
We discuss how the different estimates of elliptic flow are influenced by flow fluctuations and nonflow effects. It is explained why the event-plane method yields estimates between…
Collective phenomena in non-central nuclear collisions
Sergei A. Voloshin, Arthur M. Poskanzer, Raimond Snellings
Recent developments in the field of anisotropic flow in nuclear collision are reviewed. The results from the top AGS energy to the top RHIC energy are discussed with emphasis on te…
System-size independence of directed flow at the Relativistic Heavy-Ion Collider
STAR Collaboration, B. I. Abelev
We measure directed flow () for charged particles in Au+Au and Cu+Cu collisions at 200 GeV and 62.4 GeV, as a function of pseudorapidity (), transverse mo…
Anisotropic flow: Achievements, Difficulties, Expectations
Sergei A. Voloshin
Anisotropic flow measurements play a crucial role in understanding the physics and bulk properties of the system created in heavy ion collisions. In this talk I briefly review the…
Indications of Conical Emission of Charged Hadrons at the BNL Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider
STAR Collaboration, B. I. Abelev
Three-particle azimuthal correlation measurements with a high transverse momentum trigger particle are reported for pp, d+Au, and Au+Au collisions at 200 GeV by the STAR experiment…
Transverse Radial Flow Effects on Two- and Three-Particle Angular Correlations
Claude A. Pruneau, Sean Gavin, Sergei A. Voloshin
We use a simple a transverse radial boost scenario coupled to PYTHIA events to illustrate the impact radial flow may have on two- and three-particle correlation functions measured…
