Probing flow fluctuations through factorization breaking of harmonic flows in heavy-ion collisions
Abstract
We study factorization-breaking coefficients between the momentum dependent and momentum averaged flow vectors to probe flow fluctuations caused by initial-state fluctuations in heavy-ion collision. The coefficients for the flow vector squared and flow magnitude squared could be used for the extraction of flow angle decorrelations. We compare our model results with preliminary experimental data. We also present the predictions for the momentum dependent correlation between mixed flow harmonics.
