Systematic study of symmetric cumulants at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 200 GeV in Au+Au collision using transport approach

Abstract: Measurement of 4-particle symmetric cumulants has been considered to be a good tool to study the correlations between amplitudes of different orders of anisotropic flow harmonics in the heavy-ion collision. These new observables not yet been measured at RHIC. Using A Multi-Phase Transport model, a set of predictions for the centrality dependence of the normalized 4-particle symmetric cumulants in Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 200 GeV has been given. In addition, the effects of shear viscosity and hadronic rescattering on the magnitude of symmetric cumulants are discussed using AMPT model at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 200 GeV. It is shown that $sc(2,3)$ is found to be more sensitive to hadronic rescattering, whereas $sc(2,4)$ is more sensitive to the shear viscosity. Rapidity dependence of symmetric cumulants is also shown. A relation between symmetric cumulant and event plane correlation is investigated using AMPT model.
