The collective harmonic flow in heavy-ion collisions correlates particles at all transverse momenta to be emitted preferably some directions. The factorization breaking coefficient measures the small decorrelation of the flow harmonics at two different transverse momenta. Using the hydrodynamic model I study in details the decorrelation of the harmonic flow due to the flow angle and the flow magnitude decorrelation at two transverse momenta. The effect can be seen in experiment measuring factorization breaking coefficients for the square of the harmonic flow vector at two transverse momenta. The hydrodynamic model predicts that the decorrelation of the flow magnitudes is about one half of the decorrelation of the overall flow (combining flow angle and flow magnitude decorrelations). These results are consistent with the principal component analysis of correlators of flow vectors squared.

Harmonic flow in relativistic heavy-ion collisions is observed in a broad range of rapidities, and the flow at different rapidities is correlated. However, fluctuations lead to a small decorrelation of the harmonic flow magnitudes and flow angles at different rapidities. Using a hydrodynamic model with Glauber Monte Carlo initial conditions we show that the flow angle decorrelation strongly depends on the flow magnitude in the event. We propose observables to measure this effect in experiment.

We study correlations between the harmonic flow vectors squared measured at different transverse momenta. One of the flow harmonics squared is taken at a fixed transverse momentum and correlated to the momentum averaged harmonic flow squared of the s ame order. Such four particle correlators, dependent on transverse momentum, have been recently measured experimentally. The correlation based on four-particle correlators allows the independent measurement of the flow vector and flow magnitude correlation coefficient. Also, the correlation of the harmonic flow angles as a function of transverse momentum can be extracted. Results are compared to the preliminary data of the ALICE Collaboration. We also present the predictions for the momentum dependent correlation coefficient between mixed flow harmonics. The correlations between squares of mixed harmonics can serve as a way to independently measure the flow vector, flow magnitude, and flow angle correlations, and could be used to gain additional information on the fluctuating initial state and the dynamics in heavy-ion collisions.
In this paper, we study and predict flow observables in 2.76 A TeV and 5.02 A TeV Pb +Pb collisions, using the iEBE-VISHNU hybrid model with TRENto and AMPT initial conditions and with different forms of the QGP transport coefficients. With properly chosen and tuned parameter sets, our model calculations can nicely describe various flow observables in 2.76 A TeV Pb +Pb collisions, as well as the measured flow harmonics of all charged hadrons in 5.02 A TeV Pb +Pb collisions. We also predict other flow observables, including $v_n(p_T)$ of identified particles, event-by-event $v_n$ distributions, event-plane correlations, (Normalized) Symmetric Cumulants, non-linear response coefficients and $p_T$-dependent factorization ratios, in 5.02 A TeV Pb+Pb collisions. We find many of these observables remain approximately the same values as the ones in 2.76 A TeV Pb+Pb collisions. Our theoretical studies and predictions could shed light to the experimental investigations in the near future.
Relativistic quantum molecular dynamics with scalar and vector interactions based on the relativistic mean meson field theory, RQMD.RMF, is developed.It is implemented into the microscopic transport code JAM.The sensitivity of the directed and of the elliptic proton flow in high energy heavy-ion collisions on the stiffness of the RMF equation of state (EoS) is examined. These new calculations are compared to experimental data at mid-central Au + Au collisions in the beam energy range $2.5 < sqrt{s_{NN}} < 20$ GeV. This new RQMD model with the relativistic mean field scalar and vector meson interactions does describe consistently, with one RMF parameter set,the beam energy dependence of both the directed flow and the elliptic flow,from SIS18 to AGS and RHIC BES-II energies, $sqrt{s_{NN}}< 10$ GeV.There are different sensitivities of these different kinds of flow to the EoS: elliptic flow is most sensitive to the nuclear incompressibility constant,at the moderate beam energies $sqrt{s_{NN}}<3$ GeV,whereas the directed flow is most sensitive to the effective baryon mass at saturation density at $3< sqrt{s_{NN}}<5 $ GeV. Matters abruptly change in the next higher energy range,$sqrt{s_{NN}}gtrsim 10-20$ GeV:the directed flow data show a double change of sign of the slope of $v_1$, inverting twice in this energy range,in sudden contradiction to the RQMD.RMF calculation for a monotonous, stiff EoS. This surprising oscillating behavior,a double change of sign of the $v_1$ slope, points to the appearance of a hitherto unknown first-order phase transition in excited QCD matter at high baryon densities in mid-central Au + Au collisions.
We study factorization in single transverse spin asymmetries for dijet production in proton-proton collisions, by considering soft gluon radiation at one-loop order. We show that the associated transverse momentum dependent (TMD) factorization is val id at the leading logarithmic level. At next-to-leading-logarithmic (NLL) accuracy, however, we find that soft gluon radiation generates terms in the single transverse spin dependent cross section that differ from those known for the unpolarized case. As a consequence, these terms cannot be organized in terms of a spin independent soft factor in the factorization formula. We present leading logarithmic predictions for the single transverse spin dijet asymmetry for $pp$ collisions at RHIC, based on quark Sivers functions constrained by semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering data. We hope that our results will contribute to a better understanding of TMD factorization breaking effects at NLL accuracy and beyond.
