A Study of the Di-Hadron Angular Correlation Function in Event by Event Ideal Hydrodynamics

The di-hadron angular correlation function is computed within boost invariant, ideal hydrodynamics for Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s}_{NN}=200$ GeV using Monte Carlo Glauber fluctuating initial conditions. When $0<p_T< 3$ GeV, the intensity of the flow components and their phases, $\left\{v_n, Ψ_n \right \}$ ($n=2,3$), are found to be correlated on an event by event basis to the initial condition geometrical parameters $\left\{\varepsilon_{2,n}, Φ_{2,n} \right \}$, respectively. Moreover, the fluctuation of the relative phase between trigger and associated particles, $Δ_n =Ψ_n^t - Ψ_n^a$, is found to affect the di-hadron angular correlation function when different intervals of transverse momentum are used to define the trigger and the associated hadrons.

Influence of tubular initial conditions on two-particle correlations

A unified description of the near-side and away-side structures observed in two-particle correlations as function of delta eta-delta phi is proposed for low to moderate transverse momentum. It is based on the combined effect of tubular initial conditions and hydrodynamical expansion.

Fluctuation of the Initial Conditions and Its Consequences on Some Observables

We show effects of the event-by-event fluctuation of the initial conditions (IC) in hydrodynamic description of high-energy nuclear collisions on some observables. Such IC produce not only fluctuations in observables but, due to their bumpy structure, several non-trivial effects appear. They enhance production of isotropically distributed high-pT particles, making v2 smaller there. Also, they reduce v2 in the forward and backward regions where the global matter density is smaller, so where such effects become more efficacious. They may also produce the so-called ridge effect in the two large-pT particle correlation.

Importance of Granular Structure in the Initial Conditions for the Elliptic Flow

We show effects of granular structure of the initial conditions (IC) of hydrodynamic description of high-energy nucleus-nucleus collisions on some observables, especially on the elliptic-flow parameter v2. Such a structure enhances production of isotropically distributed high-pT particles, making v2 smaller there. Also, it reduces v2 in the forward and backward regions where the global matter density is smaller, so where such effects become more efficacious.
