Recent measurements at the LHC involve the correlation of different azimuthal flow harmonics $v_n$. These new observables add constraints to theoretical models and probe aspects of the system that are independent of the traditional single-harmonic measurements such as 2- and multi-particle cumulants $v_n\{m\}$. Many of these new observables have not yet been measured at RHIC, leaving an opportunity to make predictions as a test of models across energies. We make predictions using NeXSPheRIO, a hydrodynamical model which has accurately reproduced a large set of single-harmonic correlations in a large range of transverse momenta and centralities at RHIC. Our predictions thus provide an important baseline for comparison to correlations of flow harmonics, which contain non-trivial information about the initial state as well as QGP transport properties. We also point out significant biases that can appear when using wide centrality bins and non-trivial event weighting, necessitating care in performing experimental analyses and in comparing theoretical calculations to these measurements.

  1. Explaining higher-order correlations between elliptic and triangular flow

    nucl-th 2025-11 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Higher-order v2-v3 cumulants reduce to expressions fixed by the mean elliptic flow from nuclear overlap geometry.

  2. Cumulants of mean transverse momentum and elliptic flow in the hydrodynamic model of heavy-ion collisions

    nucl-th 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Hydrodynamic simulations of heavy-ion collisions demonstrate that cumulants linking mean pT and elliptic flow quantitatively match relations derived from initial-state entropy predictors and moments of harmonic flow.
