Özet
For the first time, correlations among mixed-order moments of two or three flow harmonics—(vk n, vl m) and (vk n, vl m, v q p), with k, l, and q denoting the respective orders—are measured in xenon–xenon (XeXe) collisions and compared with lead–lead (PbPb) results, providing a novel probe of collective behavior in heavy ion collisions. These measurements compare a nearly spherical, doubly-magic 208Pb nucleus to a triaxially deformed 129Xe nucleus, emphasizing the sensitivity to dynamic nuclear deformation. The dependence of these results (vn, n= 2, 3, 4) on the shape and size of the nuclear overlap region is studied. Comparisons between v2, v3, and v4 demonstrate the importance of v3 and v4 in exploring the nonlinear hydrodynamic response of the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) to the initial spatial anisotropy. The results constrain initial-state model parameters that influence the evolution of the QGP. The CMS detector was used to collect XeXe and PbPb data at nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass energies of
