Azimuthal anisotropy: The higher harmonics

Creators

Description

We report the first observations of the fourth harmonic (v4) in the azimuthal distribution of particles at RHIC. The measurement was done taking advantage of the large elliptic flow generated at RHIC. The integrated v4 is about a factor of 10 smaller than v2. For the sixth (v6) and eighth (v8) harmonics upper limits on the magnitudes are reported
