Azimuthal distribution of exponential format for particle collective motions in heavy-ion collisions under asynchronous assumption

Abstract

Particle azimuth distributions are widely studied in heavy-ion collisions. They are often expanded in Fourier series to extract anisotropic flow harmonics simultaneously. It was recently proposed that the different orders of flows could happen asynchronously or noninterdependently. This study extends this idea to an exponential format of the azimuth distribution, which makes it straightforward to extract the asynchronous flow coefficients. We compare these new coefficients to the conventional ones, and find consistency in the leading coefficient and discrepancy in higher-order ones.Comment: 4 pages, 5 figure
