Isolation of flow and nonflow correlations by two- and four-particle cumulant measurements of azimuthal harmonics in √s[subscript NN] = 200 GeV Au+Au collisions

A data-driven method was applied to Au+Au collisions a t√s[subscript NN] = 200 GeV made with the STAR detector at RHIC to isolate pseudorapidity distance Δη-dependent and Δη-independent correlations by using two- and four-particle azimuthal cumulant measurements. We identified a Δη-independent compo...
