Initial partonic eccentricities in Au+Au collisions at center-of-mass energy $sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 200 GeV are investigated using a multi-phase transport model with string melting scenario. The initial eccentricities in different order of harmonics are studied using participant and cumulant definitions. Eccentricity in terms of second-, fourth- and sixth order cumulants as a function of number of participant nucleons are compared systematically with the traditional participant definition. The ratio of the cumulant eccentricities $varepsilonleft{4right}/varepsilonleft{2right}$ and $varepsilonleft{6right}/varepsilonleft{4right}$ are studied in comparison with the ratio of the corresponding flow harmonics. The conversion coefficients ($v_n/varepsilon_n$) are explored up to fourth order harmonic based on cumulant method. Furthermore, studies on transverse momentum ($p_T$) and pseudo-rapidity ($eta$) dependencies of eccentricities and their fluctuations are presented. As in ideal hydrodynamics initial eccentricities are expected to be closely related to the final flow harmonics in relativistic heavy-ion collisions, studies of the fluctuating initial condition in the AMPT model will shed light on the tomography properties of the initial source geometry.

The string melting version of a multi-phase transport model is often applied to high-energy heavy-ion collisions since the dense matter thus formed is expected to be in parton degrees of freedom. In this work we improve its quark coalescence componen t, which describes the hadronization of the partonic matter to a hadronic matter. We removed the previous constraint that forced the numbers of mesons, baryons, and antibaryons in an event to be separately conserved through the quark coalescence process. A quark now could form either a meson or a baryon depending on the distance to its coalescence partner(s). We then compare results from the improved model with the experimental data on hadron $dN/dy$, $p_{_{rm T}}$ spectra, and $v_2$ in heavy-ion collisions from $sqrt{s_{_{rm NN}}}=62.4$ GeV to $5.02$ TeV. We show that, besides being able to describe these observables for low-$p_{_{rm T}}$ pions and kaons, the improved model also better describes the low-$p_{_{rm T}}$ baryon observables in general, especially the baryon $p_{_{rm T}}$ spectra and antibaryon-to-baryon ratios for multistrange baryons.

Both hydrodynamics-based models and a multi-phase transport (AMPT) model can reproduce the mass splitting of azimuthal anisotropy ($v_n$) at low transverse momentum ($p_{perp}$) as observed in heavy ion collisions. In the AMPT model, however, $v_n$ i s mainly generated by the parton escape mechanism, not by the hydrodynamic flow. In this study we provide detailed results on the mass splitting of $v_n$ in this transport model, including $v_2$ and $v_3$ of various hadron species in d+Au and Au+Au collisions at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider and p+Pb collisions at the Large Hadron Collider. We show that the mass splitting of hadron $v_2$ and $v_3$ in AMPT first arises from the kinematics in the quark coalescence hadronization process, and then, more dominantly, comes from hadronic rescatterings, even though the contribution from the latter to the overall charged hadron $v_n$ is small. We further show that there is no qualitative difference between heavy ion collisions and small-system collisions or between elliptic ($v_2$) and triangular ($v_3$) anisotropies. Our studies thus demonstrate that the mass splitting of $v_2$ and $v_3$ at low-$p_{perp}$ is not a unique signature of hydrodynamic collective flow but can be the interplay of several physics effects.

Isobaric $^{96}_{44}$Ru+$^{96}_{44}$Ru and $^{96}_{40}$Zr+$^{96}_{40}$Zr collisions were performed at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider in 2018. Using the a multi-phase transport model with nuclear structures calculated by the density functional th eory (DFT), we make predictions for the charged hadron multiplicity distributions and elliptic azimuthal anisotropies in these collisions. Emphases are put on the relative differences between the two collision systems that can decisively discriminate DFT nuclear distributions from the commonly used Woods-Saxon densities.

The time evolution of Mach-like structure (the splitting of the away side peak in di-hadron $Deltaphi$ correlation) is presented in the framework of a dynamical partonic transport model. With the increasing of the lifetime of partonic matter, Mach-li ke structure can be produced and developed by strong parton cascade process. Not only the splitting parameter but also the number of associated hadrons ($N_{h}^{assoc}$) increases with the lifetime of partonic matter and partonic interaction cross section. Both the explosion of $N_{h}^{assoc}$ following the formation of Mach-like structure and the corresponding results of three-particle correlation support that a partonic Mach-like shock wave can be formed by strong parton cascade mechanism. Therefore, the studies about Mach-like structure may give us some critical information, such as the lifetime of partonic matter and hadronization time.
We study effects of eccentricity fluctuations on the elliptic flow coefficient v_2 at mid-rapidity in both Au+Au and Cu+Cu collisions at sqrt{s_{NN}}=200 GeV by using a hybrid model that combines ideal hydrodynamics for space-time evolution of the qu ark gluon plasma phase and a hadronic transport model for the hadronic matter. We find that the effect of eccentricity fluctuation is modest in semicentral Au+Au collisions but significantly enhances v_2 in Cu+Cu collisions.
