Description

In order to study the properties of the hot and dense matter created by heavy ion collisions, various physics observables have been measured in RHIC and the LHC, such as spectra, collective flow, two particle correlations and HBT. The higher harmonic flow vn have been recently measured, which is primarily coming from the spatial fluctuation of the initial participant density. Measurements related to the vn and event planes will give us new insight into the properties of the hot and dense matter and space-time evolution in the heavy ion collisions. We present the latest results of higher harmonic flow vn for identified particles and azimuthal hadron correlations with the subtraction of backgrounds from higher harmonic flow vn. Besides, we present mT dependence of final eccentricity obtained by azimuthal HBT measurement.
