Abstract:Année de publication : 2011
Event-by-event fluctuations of the initial transverse density profile result in a collective flow pattern which also fluctuates event by event. We propose a number of new correlation observables to characterize these fluctuations and discuss how they should be analyzed experimentally. We argue that most of these quantities can be measured at RHIC and LHC.
