abstract
The strategy and techniques for analyzing anisotropic flow (directed, elliptic, etc.) in relativistic nuclear collisions are presented. The emphasis is on the use of the Fourier expansion of azimuthal distributions. We present formulae relevant for this approach, and in particular, show how the event multiplicity enters into the event plane resolution. We also discuss the role of non-flow correlations and a method for introducing flow into a simulation.

A no-RP method extracts v1 and v2 flows from equal-contributing asymmetries in heavy-ion collisions, achieving Pearson correlations of 0.985 for v2 and 0.883 for v1 versus true reaction-plane values in PHSD simulations.
STAR reports energy-dependent variances and covariances of [p_T] and v_n^2 in Au+Au collisions from 14.6 to 200 GeV, with the dimensionless ratio remaining similar across energies.
PHQMD simulations with momentum-dependent potentials show that a soft momentum-dependent EoS calibrated to pA data reproduces experimental proton and cluster flows at midrapidity better than static EoS variants, while cluster formation method affects flow patterns.
Toy models show multi-particle correlators can increase rather than reduce deviation from true flow harmonics in small collision systems.
The equilibrated core in O+O collisions overtakes the nonequilibrium corona above midrapidity multiplicity of about 20, yet corona contributions persist in central events, making pure hydrodynamics inadequate.
Simulations show non-flow two-particle cumulant distributions have high skewness and kurtosis while true elliptic flow distributions are closer to Gaussian with lower values.
ALICE observes strong suppression of associated hadron yields per trigger photon in central Pb-Pb collisions at 5.02 TeV, extending the kinematic reach of photon-hadron correlation measurements.
AMPT simulations show the ratio of nonlinear response coefficients between U+U and Au+Au collisions remains stable across evolution stages, isolating initial geometric correlations.
