Scaling behavior of anisotropic flow harmonics in the far from equilibrium regime

Abstract We consider the development of anisotropic flow in an expanding system of particles undergoing very few rescatterings, using a kinetic-theoretical description with a nonlinear collision term. We derive the scaling behaviors of the harmonic coefficients $$v_n$$ vn with the initial-state ecce...
