Description

The main motivation is to understand anisotropic flow in deformed collision systems. Here, we will discuss elliptic flow and other higher order flow coefficients (n$\le$4). These coefficients carry essential information about the dynamics of the created medium. The study of anisotropic flow coefficients v n in Xe-Xe collisions at 5.44 TeV under Monte Carlo HYDJET++ model (HYDrodynamics plus JETs) framework is presented. Anisotropic flow of charged hadrons have strong transverse momentum and centrality dependence. Strong centrality dependent correlation is observed between the flow harmonics ($v_{2},v_{3},v_{4}$). HYDJET++ model predicts a linear positive correlation in central collisions while boomerang like correlation structure exists in peripheral collisions as found in ALICE experiment. We find a strong dependence of the above observables on the geometry of collision. Hydrodynamical models predict a 10% increase in elliptic flow ($v_{2}$) for deformed Xe nucleus compared to the spherical Xe-nucleus in central collisions. Thus, it will be an interesting work to visualise correlations between these anisotropic flow coefficients in the scenario of deformed collision systems.
