Description
A primary objective of relativistic heavy-ion collision beam energy scan programs is to explore the high-density equation of state (EoS) and potential phase transitions in dense baryonic matter. Anisotropic flow measurements, defined from the azimuthal distributions of final-state charged particles, offer a powerful tool to extract such information. The correlations between different flow harmonics can impose even stronger constraints on the EoS parameters and provide further understanding of the underlying flow formation dynamics. This study investigates the correlations among the directed flow (v1), elliptic flow (v2), triangular flow (v3), and quadrangular flow (v4) using a state-of-the-art heavy-ion collision model for the Nuclotron-NICA energy range, which is critical for the upcoming MPD experiment. The model predictions are compared against existing HADES experimental data.
