High statistics data sets from experiments at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) and the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) with small and large collision species have enabled a wealth of new flow measurements, including the event-by-event correlation between observables. One exciting such observable $rho(v^{2}_{n},[p_{T}])$ gauges the correlation between the mean transverse momentum of particles in an event and the various flow coefficients ($v_n$) in the same event [1]. Recently it has been proposed that very low multiplicity events may be sensitive to initial-state glasma correlations [2] rather than flow-related dynamics. We find utilizing the IP-JAZMA framework that the color domain explanation for the glasma results are incomplete. We then explore predictions from PYTHIA-8, and the version for including nuclear collisions called PYTHIA-ANGANTYR, which have only non-flow correlations and the AMPT model which has both non-flow and flow-type correlations. We find that PYTHIA-ANGANTYR has non-flow contributions to $rho(v^{2}_{n},[p_{T}])$ in p+O, p+Pb, O+O collisions that are positive at low multiplicity and comparable to the glasma correlations. It is striking that in PYTHIA-8 in p+p collisions there is actually a sign-change from positive to negative $rho(v^{2}_{n},[p_{T}])$ as a function of multiplicity. The AMPT results match the experimental data general trends in Pb+Pb collisions at the LHC, except at low multiplicity where AMPT has the opposite sign. In p+Pb collisions, AMPT has the opposite sign from experimental data and we explore this within the context of parton geometry. Predictions for p+O, O+O, and Xe+Xe are also presented.

To assess the properties of the quark-gluon plasma formed in nuclear collisions, the Pearson correlation coefficient between flow harmonics and mean transverse momentum, $rholeft(v_{n}^{2},left[p_{mathrm{T}}right]right)$, reflecting the overlapped ge
ometry of colliding atomic nuclei, is measured. $rholeft(v_{2}^{2},left[p_{mathrm{T}}right]right)$ was found to be particularly sensitive to the quadrupole deformation of the nuclei. We study the influence of the nuclear quadrupole deformation on $rholeft(v_{n}^{2},left[p_{mathrm{T}}right]right)$ in $rm{Au+Au}$ and $rm{U+U}$ collisions at RHIC energy using $rm{AMPT}$ transport model, and show that the $rholeft(v_{2}^{2},left[p_{mathrm{T}}right]right)$ is reduced by the prolate deformation $beta_2$ and turns to change sign in ultra-central collisions (UCC).
We perform 3+1D viscous hydrodynamic calculations of proton-lead and lead-lead collisions at top LHC energy. We show that existing data from high-multiplicity p-Pb events can be well described in hydrodynamics, suggesting that collective flow is plau
sible as a correct description of these collisions. However, a more stringent test of the presence of hydrodynamic behavior can be made by studying the detailed momentum dependence of two-particle correlations. We define a relevant observable, $r_n$, and make predictions for its value and centrality dependence if hydrodynamics is a valid description. This will provide a non-trivial confirmation of the nature of the correlations seen in small collision systems, and potentially to determine where the hydrodynamic description, if valid anywhere, stops being valid. Lastly, we probe what can be learned from this observable, finding that it is insensitive to viscosity, but sensitive to aspects of the initial state of the system that other observables are insensitive to, such as the transverse length scale of the fluctuations in the initial stages of the collision.
The first ($v_1^{text{even}}$), second ($v_2$) and third ($v_3$) harmonic coefficients of the azimuthal particle distribution at mid-rapidity, are extracted for charged hadrons and studied as a function of transverse momentum ($p_T$) and mean charged
particle multiplicity density $langle mathrm{N_{ch}} rangle$ in U+U ($roots =193$~GeV), Au+Au, Cu+Au, Cu+Cu, $d$+Au and $p$+Au collisions at $roots = 200$~GeV with the STAR Detector. For the same $langle mathrm{N_{ch}} rangle$, the $v_1^{text{even}}$ and $v_3$ coefficients are observed to be independent of collision system, while $v_2$ exhibits such a scaling only when normalized by the initial-state eccentricity ($varepsilon_2$). The data also show that $ln(v_2/varepsilon_2)$ scales linearly with $langle mathrm{N_{ch}} rangle^{-1/3}$. These measurements provide insight into initial-geometry fluctuations and the role of viscous hydrodynamic attenuation on $v_n$ from small to large collision systems.
We propose observables $v_0$ and $v_0(p_T)$ which quantify the relative fluctuations in the total transverse momentum at fixed multiplicity. We first study the factorization of the fixed multiplicity momentum dependent two particle correlation functi
on into a product of $v_0(p_T^a)$ and $v_0(p_T^b)$ within realistic hydrodynamic simulations. Then we present computations of $v_0(p_T)$ for different particle types. We determine the relation between the integrated $v_0$ and previously measured observables, and compare results from a hybrid hydrodynamics based model to experimental data. The effects of bulk viscosity and an initial pre-equilibrium stage on the results are quantified. We find that $v_0$ is strongly correlated with the initial state entropy per elliptic area, $S/A$. Using this result, we explain how the observed correlations between the elliptic flow and the transverse momentum (both in simulations and experiment) reflect the initial state correlations between $1/A$ and ellipticity $varepsilon_2$ at fixed multiplicity. We argue that the systematic experimental study of $v_0$, with the same sophistication as used for the other $v_n$, can contribute significantly to our understanding of quark gluon plasma properties.
The correlation between the harmonic flow and the transverse flow in relativistic heavy ion collisions is calculated in the hydrodynamic model. The partial correlation coefficient, corrected for fluctuations of multiplicity, is compared to experiment
al data. Estimators of the final transverse and harmonic flow are used to predict the value of the correlation coefficient from the moments of the initial distribution. A good description of the hydrodynamic simulation results is obtained if the estimator for the final transverse flow, besides the most important transverse size and entropy, includes also the eccentricities.
