Flow analysis methods in ALICE Event plane from Lee-Yang zeroes

The measurement of anisotropic flow in heavy ion collisions gives insight into the equation of state of the matter formed in the collision. Several methods are available for measuring anisotropic flow. However, methods based on two-particle correlations do not reproduce the flow signal if nonflow is...

description The measurement of anisotropic flow in heavy ion collisions gives insight into the equation of state of the matter formed in the collision. Several methods are available for measuring anisotropic flow. However, methods based on two-particle correlations do not reproduce the flow signal if nonflow is present. Methods based on multi-particle correlations do. A new reaction plane estimate is presented based on the Lee-Yang zeroes method, that enables an unbiased analysis of e.g. jets or charm versus the reaction plane.
