We show that an event-shape engineering based on the mean transverse momentum of charged hadrons, $[p_t]$, provides an optimal handle on the strength of the magnetic field created in central heavy-ion collisions at high energy. This is established through quantitative evaluations of the correlation existing between the event-by-event magnetic field produced by the spectator protons in 5.02 TeV Pb+Pb collisions and the event-by-event $[p_t]$ at a given collision centrality. We argue that the event selection based on $[p_t]$ provides a better handle on the magnetic field than the more traditional selection based on the event ellipticities. Advantages brought by this new method for the experimental search of the chiral magnetic effect are discussed.

Novel transverse-momentum technique is used to analyse charged-particle exclusive data for collective motion in the Ar+KCl reaction at 1.8 GeV/nucl. Previous analysis of this reaction, employing the standard sphericity tensor, revealed no significant effect. In the present analysis, collective effects are observed, and they are substantially stronger than in the Cugnon cascade model, but weaker than in the hydrodynamical model.
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).

Preliminary data by the STAR collaboration at the BNL Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider shows that the elliptic flow, $v_2$, and the average transverse momentum, $langle p_t rangle$, of final-state hadrons produced in high-multiplicity $^{238}$U+$^{238 }$U collisions are negatively correlated. This observation brings experimental evidence of a significant prolate deformation, $betaapprox 0.3$, in the colliding $^{238}$U nuclei. I show that a quantitative description of this new phenomenon can be achieved within the hydrodynamic framework of heavy-ion collisions, and that thus such kind of data in the context of high-energy nuclear experiments can help constrain the quadrupole deformation of the colliding species.
We propose the skewness of mean transverse momentum, $langle p_t rangle$, fluctuations as a fine probe of hydrodynamic behavior in relativistic nuclear collisions. We describe how the skewness of the $langle p_t rangle$ distribution can be analyzed e xperimentally, and we use hydrodynamic simulations to predict its value. We predict in particular that $langle p_t rangle$ fluctuations have positive skew, which is significantly larger than if particles were emitted independently. We elucidate the origin of this result by deriving generic formulas relating the fluctuations of $langle p_t rangle$ to the fluctuations of the early-time thermodynamic quantities. We postulate that the large positive skewness of $langle p_t rangle$ fluctuations is a generic prediction of hydrodynamic models.

Transverse-mass spectra, their inverse slopes and mean transverse masses in relativistic collisions of heavy nuclei are analyzed in a wide range of incident energies 2.7 GeV $le sqrt{s_{NN}}le$ 39 GeV. The analysis is performed within the three-fluid model employing three different equations of state (EoSs): a purely hadronic EoS, an EoS with the first-order phase transition and that with a smooth crossover transition into deconfined state. Calculations show that inverse slopes and mean transverse masses of all the species (with the exception of antibaryons within the hadronic scenario) exhibit a step-like behavior similar to that observed for mesons and protons in available experimental data. This step-like behavior takes place for all considered EoSs and results from the freeze-out dynamics rather than is a signal of the deconfinement transition. A good reproduction of experimental inverse slopes and mean transverse masses for light species (up to proton) is achieved within all the considered scenarios. The freeze-out parameters are precisely the same as those used for reproduction of particles yields in previous papers of this series. This became possible because the freeze-out stage is not completely equilibrium.
